We have a 1990 75 series that came with a 2H, that ended it's service life with 1.2m km on it after finally giving up a piston and me not wanting to pay to rebuild it again. Donor engine came from my 60 series. Currently a 12HT with 1.3m km on it. Definitely seen better days, but sits at around 11L/100km and still pulls pretty well so I'm happy.

Thats 1.2m painfully slow kms mate
 
My 1987 BJ71 has 350,000km on it. I put 80,000 on it in the last 4.5 years I’ve owned it.

Bit crusty in some spots, gearbox has been rebuilt, injectors done but valve stem seals desperately need doing as she’s a bit smokey on cold starts but still nets me 700kms on the open road and will take me anywhere I want to go!
 
Compared to the rigs mentioned above, mine is still wearing diapers :D
Only 272000 and a bit of wich it has been towing a caravan (max AUW 1600 kg or about 3500 pounds) for about 115 000.
Owning it for almost 18 years now, this means an average of 15540 kms/year.

Longest distance in shortest time was almost 16000km in 5 weeks and 3 days on our trip to Kazakhstan and back.

Average fuelconsumption 12,8 liter per 100 km.
Meaning I have used 34816 liters diesel. Lowest price per liter was 28 Eurocent (36 dollarcent) in 2001 in Tunesia, highest was 1.80 Euro (2.33 USD) in 2012 in the UK.

Average fuelcost per km is 11,74 eurocent (15 USDcent) and therefore total fuelcost over this distance is 31933 Euro or 41351 USD :eek:
Fantastic, wich engine/ car?
