You can reach 105 on the M4 in peak hour????
Congrats, many k's to come. My AU is on 84, only does about 5 a year so there is few years to go before it gets to 100.

On ya! I would've kept driving on not bothering about taking a shot if I was on a freeway.
Luckily I pulled off to a quiet street in an industrial area.

I just went over 150,000km last week.
I'm now just over 152,000 this week. I didn't get a chance to take a photo ... was too busy. My thoughts were ... better change the oil again ... cos I'll know I have to do it in another 5-10,000km

The wagon's on 125 (2000 model AU2), and does between 5000 and 10000 per year, if we're lucky.
The XRs on 149800 or something, will try to take a pic when I hit 150,000 - I'll see if I can get the speedo to match the kms in 1000s (not!). Maybe in 10000s.

http://www.fordforums.com.au/showthr...798#post540798 I suppose the previous owner changed the cluster to T-Series spec with the white fascia going by your description.
