300k Mile Club! Who's In It!?

[88SuperETABD]

Hey guys, I know it's not unusual to see e30's in the 200k range, but how bout 300k? Post up your current mileage, explain whats been done to engine and a pic of the car (Swaps dont count, I wanna see 300k on same motor, rebuild okay, I guess)

My car, 88 327i, original bottom end and bearings, "refreshed" head (just new seals/gaskets and cam), Just clicked over 300k miles.

These m20's impress the shit out of me, I recently took mine to the dyno with a vacuum leak, still managed to pull 165whp/156wtq on a dynojet.

Here is my former 300k car, no odometer pics though

Not an e30 but e28 @ 320k and some change

No idea what's been done to it... All I know is that it's a tank

damn, props for clean 300k cars. owners deserve a cookie for correct car care

broke 2 clusters both over 300k. I am inching towards 700k on the chassis, m20 lasted 645k

Holy crap.....thats a lot of miles. My cluster broke around 260k, but i quickly replaced it. it may be off by 50 miles or so.

I love seeing high mileage cars! My old Eta had an estimated 350k on the chassis.

my 86 ES had 333k before I traded it in for a B5 Passat :(

My uncle had an e28 he bought with 250k on it and sold with 500k on it. I can see an m20 going for 300k easily with basic maintenance (timing belt most importantly). Right now my cluster only shows 41,XXX on it..

i can't really prove any of this because i've never had an e30 with a working odometer, but i think you all will agree that i'm well into the 300k range:

The motor in my car came out of my first e30; 1987 325e. I bought it in 2006 with a broken odometer as i stated. It had stopped at 206K, and no one knows when that happened. Car was bought originally in texas and enjoyed a happy life all over the country. I know that from dealer stamps in the original owners manual. I drove that car up until a year ago, with about 2 years of down time for repairs, projects, and restoration attempts. Then my ex-fiance totaled it, i hate her f-ing guts. At this point, i acquired my 85' 318i, which once again, no idea of the mileage but its odometer had stopped in the 230K mile range, not that it matters. I swapped everything over from my 87' and in the process did the "i" conversion to my tired eta. I know the motor has got to be in the high 300K's. Doesn't leak or burn any oil what so ever. I love this motor, lots of fun. So do i qualify?

I've got 600 miles until 300k. Only on the chassis though. I can't wait!

My first e30 had 330k on it before it was stolen back in 2010. It wasn't in the best shape on the exterior, but interior was pristine! Family owned the entire time, you can see it in my signature.

[EyExR]

Sold my '84 533i at 550K and still running... Also sold an 82' 323i at 395K still running. These cars will last!

[Kershaw]

my ix has an estimated 370k miles. odo just turned over 270k yesterday but i looked up the records and the odo didnt move much over a 7 year period and was broken when i bought the car.

original bottom end, fully redone head.

[F34R]

My first eta had over 375k on it with broken cluster gears.
