So I put another 46 miles on Lurch today and had to fill up before getting to far. I am recording the mileage and fuel use in order to work out the MPG.
That got me thinking when I wrote down the mileage:- 29,392
What is the highest mileage on a Haflinger?
I don't suppose any have "gone round the clock", but there ought to be some with higher mileage than Lurch.

Even 29,000 is quite a lot I'd have thought?

Re: Highest mileage Haflinger?
My bantam has been flipped once (in KM) and is now at 17,xxx. She has had the pistons, cylinders replaced twice, and the heads rebuilt twice prior to my ownership. Just recently the entire motor was rebuilt with another set of pistons and cylinders (this time 1500cc VW parts). The heads this time were also rebuilt with larger valves from a BMW and was mildly ported and polished.
The most recent work was done by Leo Castiglione out of California.

This Haflinger a member of our club, has traveled over 100,000 kms !!
Re: Highest mileage Haflinger?
Now those are some impressive distances to have traveled at 40 mile per hour! Does any one want to do the maths to work out how many years some one has sat in their Haflinger at 40mph?

Re: Highest mileage Haflinger?
I bought mine from the 1st civilian owner who had if for 15 years and drove it regularly, both on his farm and to run errands around town. Considering it is a bantam he must have put all but a few hundred KM's on it.

100,000kmh/60kmh= 1667 hrs=70 days
