Base S 70 non turbo has 259,000 miles. Over half highway miles. Always kept the car up. The S70 pleases me a lot. Using about 1 quart oil every 350 miles. Has always used oil since I bought her with 75,000 miles 8 years ago. Currently driving 300 highway miles a week plus 50 miles in city. 23 combined MPG. No smoke, but some light blowby on the tail and tailpipe. Transmission shifts fine as it did at 75K. Question: Can I put money back into the car and have a dependable ride for another 150K?? I may choose to be buried in her!

Hi-Yo Silver Away!
