Prelude mileage

Do you think it matters how many miles your lude has covered as long as it's looked after well?
Mines done 118000 full service history for all 20 years of it's life. I think that's pretty impressive....

I always say that if you look after a car, it will look after you. I know it's not a prelude, but we have a old accord taxi that's on 286,000 miles come in every 6 months for a service. Still sounds sweet. 8-)

178k before I rear-ended a Range Rover Sport, and whilst rebuilding decided to replace it with a lower mileage JDM engine (had done about 60k - now it's had another ~40k added since).

I still think the UKDM engine I took out was stronger than the JDM engine I put in!
