Highest Mileage Aveo (how many miles / km on yours now?)

[Melveo]

Wish there was spindle adapters so you could just press in a new spindle with a different bolt pattern. Ive seen the blue hatch with it done, Mercedes 5 lug, i have a 04 with 120k, when i got it it needed a wheel bearing and tie-rods end, but after going coilover then lowering then slamming then the lowest drop on mk2 possible , ive needed a radiator, couple of trans mount bracket bolts, inner motor mount bracket, timing belt, cams due to freak shearing accident of the inner motor mount(only 3 bolts holing it in). The mount and bolts ate the timing belt up and it almost ripped but i caught it in time. I enjoy breaking necks as the lowest aveo, maybe world wide. Haven't seen one lower than me. Will be mk1 and tucking hard in the rear soon

Just an update. I recently did my 700,000 oil change.



That's in km. Metric just sounds better.

Sadly (happily) I'm not teaching all over Michigan anymore, so I'm about done racking up miles like crazy. My last big milestone is probably going to be half a million miles, but I doubt I'll hit too many after that.

Hey, My 2009 Aveo5 has over 226,000 km on it, so i'm not sure if that is a lot of km, but i just thought that i would contribute to the conversation. BTW this is my first car, and i'm trying to learn about the car world.

nice car man, way more nice than mine.

i dont think GM has allowed a car to be produced to last that kind of mileage with their quality control.

Chevy Trackers easily make 300,000km with little maintenance except oil/filter changes & tires. There's examples for sale with over 500,000km, although they're getting pretty beat-up by then.

My 2006 has 284,600 miles on it now....

I've got my Mom's little-old-lady 06 Aveo and it just turned 18k. I think I said it had 16 in the introductions thread but I was wrong. It still doesn't get driven much so it's going to be a long time until has many miles on it.
I have an '89 Toyota pickup with 484,000 on the original drivetrain, I've owned it since it was a year old and kept it maintained. It's had 3 timing chains and one head gasket/valve job and that's it. I don't think this Aveo will go that long, but I'd say it's good for 300 with proper maintenance.

Well its now January 2017 and it has been awhile. I just turned over 250,000 miles on my 2009 aveo5. I did take a picture of the mileage so maybe I can post later. It is still running strong and I still love driving it. I did hit a deer and had to put on a new hood and headlight / New timing belt at 200,000 / a couple sets of headlights / clutch was slipping and was told that fluid leaked into the housing and was causing it to slip so I put in a new clutch at 240,000. Otherwise everything is great!!!

116.650 km (or 72.400 miles) with 2008 aveo sedan from Serbia. I am 3rd owner, the 2nd one drove it for 6 months and decided its not a car for him. I got LPG installed, which makes my ride a bit cheaper and the mileage going up faster.
