You CAN do 200k in a Piazza...

My very own Piazza (the silver one) made it to 200K today! The poor victim:


and the proof:


Yes, 200 thousand Km and she's still running strong and smooth as the day she left the factory. Which isnt saying much, since theyre not very powerful and the engine is rather unrefined, but theyre built like trucks so thats to be expected. And 200k is a fair distance!! Cant wait to get the Turbo up and running though...

Sounds like your car is good and reliable as the subaru I had. I had a 1993 Liberty Rallye and when we got rid of it 10 years later it had 326000 on the clock. I like to drive. Miss me subaru but it was time to let it die

You're clearly pizza-deficient. Go eat some pizza straight away.

Its an Isuzu Impulse, except over here they called them 'Piazza'.

Both of my previous Hondas went over 100K miles, which would be about 160K km - and could easily have gone for more. (Much cursing of car thieves and of idiot shopping-mall rent-a-cops.)

Glad to hear you're having fun. ;)

Thanks mate :-) they were despised and ridiculed when they were new (which is why I wanted one), now there are only a few left...

My first boss when I was in high school working after school collected Edsels.

LOL another automotive joke thats become popular again :-) I wouldnt say I was 'collecting' Piazzas, even though I now have two.. Oh dear, I *am* collecting them arent I...

Keep posting user pics like that though and I might be tempted to start collecting [livejournal.com profile] dozerbulls... woof!
