        Both my '88 (203k) & '89 (199k) odometers are still working.

        They'll probably both blow up now that I've posted this.

          I'll roll 300k within the next 2 weeks before it goes to sleep for the winter.

            All my E30 odos work. is it a regional thing?

            they say 300k is the new 200k.

            to the OP, is the engine original?

            It's a sunny day here in Seattle, and I pulled the GQ E30 M3 out to drive to work and I noticed I'm going to flip to 90,000 later today if I take the long way home. Maybe I'll snap a pic.

                  I'm not sure if the motor is original, I need to compare VINs. Part of me wants it to be, and part of me doesnt. Either way a rebuild is in the cards.

                    I think they only break because people reset them when the car is moving

                      Lol well im the biggest looser about 100,000 mile or in my case 180,000km. It works out to be about 10,000km a year which is really good considering the average is about 20,000km a year. Don't know how you convert Km/L to MPG but i get 7 Km/L.

                                that's not so great, in fact that's pretty bad, especially steady state cruising

                                although it seems to me E30s get their best mileage between 50-70mph (80-110kph).
