Is this true? From my memory, many car brands were only good for 100-150k miles when I was a kid. Now it seems like just about all cars made in the last decade are expected to be viable to 200-300k miles
It is funny, how here in Russia there are a lot of talks that modern engines need rebuild after 100K-150K of KILOMETER (not miles), we could not buy car with "million-worth" engine anymore!
It is very common view, that modern cars are much more safe, comfortable, ecologically sane, faster, and even reliable in first 1-2 years, than old ones, but they will break up and require very expensive repair (engine re-sleeving or re-boring with full rebuild) much, much sooner than older ones.
