Re: [MBZ] Unique odometer reading
Thanks, John. Actually both your readings are pretty nice too (the 131313 and the 11). I just took a less interesting shot using my cel phone when my Saab turned 15.

Thats cool. Wish I had a 123 with that low of mileage :):) I used to have one (this probably doesnt count) of my wife's old corolla at 131313 miles. shortly thereafter it developed an allergy to the clutch (started slipping real bad)... given its advanced stage of skin cancer, it wasn't worth it :( (The engine was replaced at 40-45k due to a cracked block, fwiw) (ob-rice-bash) I have one of my E300 at 11 :) -j.

The trick, or at least the way I handled the same situation, is to crank the resolution way up on the camera, so you can take the shot without looking through the viewfinder and then crop it down to what you want, later. That's how I took this one: http://www.gull.us/misc/mercedes/20.jpg Hmm...looking at the two pictures, I notice the maximum speed tick marks are in different places. On my 300D Turbo, they're at roughly these speeds: I - 27 mph II - 47 mph III - 76 mph On his car, they're at roughly: I - 24 mph II - 39 mph III - 64 mph I assume our cars must have different rear end ratios or something.

Re: [MBZ] unique odometer reading
Pic didn't show up for me. What was the unique mileage? I remember when my Sportie turned 40k, I pulled over, let my dog (90 lbs worth) out of his riding compartment, and took a pic with the two of them.

Re: [MBZ] unique odometer reading
I wish, in retrospect, that I'd reset the trip odometer to show 123456 up top and 1234 down below. But alas, I didn't have that much foresight.

Re: [MBZ] unique odometer reading
I like that ! 123456 + 88K is still just a pup at just over 200K Hey Tom, you put a lot of miles on. WHat is the highest mileage MB (or other car) you have had? At 08:32 PM 1/20/2006, you wrote: My odometer "turned" this today while I was driving west to a meeting. Having taken the digital camera with me in anticipation of this turn-of-events, just had to pull onto the shoulder of the highway and snap a photo. But ... the odometer reading is not really true, since a new one was put in by 240D's previous owner at ~88,000 miles.

My odometer "turned" this today while I was driving west to a meeting.
