100,000 km that is. For the Imperial crowd, that's 62,137 permagrin filled miles.

You haven't even ...

reached that very controversial 2000 mile / 3000 km break-in distance, but it sure hasn't reached it's peak. Just put new plugs, filter, serp belt in this year, making it feel like a frisky teenager. cool smiley

Thanks for setting the stage with all your milestone pictures.

Now, if you could have also gotten that "mpg" to show 100.... Congrats!

Come to think of it, why is that showing MPG, instead of Kilometers per Gallon, or Liter, or something?

I think the highest mpg it will show is 99.9 mpg. Give me a down hill run and I can do it. smiling smiley

Normally, I do have the OBC set for kph, l/100 km (liters per 100 km) and Celcius. This weekend we were on a Porsche outing in lower NY state with 5 other couples. Any time I cross into the US, I change the OBC to mph, mpg and Fahrenheit. (You know - when in Rome...). I just reset it to km to take the picture and didn't bother with the consumption.

Biggest challenge was to hold it 100 kph for the shot since we were on a 2 lane, hilly and curvy road at the time. Basically, you've got a little over a hundred yard window to get that shot before the trip odo turns to 100.1 km.
Guenter--congratulations! *NM*
