I just hit 120,000 miles with my 2006 Baja sport. Original owner, all highway miles for the most part. Hoping to hit 200K.

'03 Classic with all the bells and whistles. Only 76,500 so far. Second owner, just bought it in June. Seems like a stout little truck and I'm looking forward to many happy miles and mods to come.

191K miles, no major problems so far. Items replaced so far: Timing belt (once), front rotors (once), battery (once), brake pads (three times), tires (three times), and of course regular oil changes. Clutch replaced once at 120k miles and rear wheel bearings once, but we load up this Baja well beyond its weight limits on several occasions. Original engine and seals, oiginal tranny, original diffs, original rear rotors, even the struts/springs/bushings are original and doing fine. No major problems at all.

my '03 has 120,000 miles. No real problems to speak of, though a couple months ago I was on my way to get an oil change, and had just gotten on the highway when I blew a spark plug right out of it's socket. Don't really know how, but a free tow and $300 later I was good to go with new spark plug wires, an oil change, and a new inspection sticker. No real damage to the block from the spark plug incident, was strange though.

Re: Highest miles on a Baja (so far!)?
Greetings from Columbia, SC where we recently got a "huge" snowfall of 5" on Sunday night (down here everything shut down for two days, no joke). I purchased my 2005 Baja with 77,777 miles on it (<I am a priest, so I liked this number!). It was a one-owner, traded in by a 71 year old who'd moved here from Massachusetts. It is nice. I traded in a 2000 Isuzu Rodo Ironman with 165,000 miles.

Re: Highest miles on a Baja (so far!)?
180k on mine. service records show no major work being done. replaced front rotor when we got it ( made the dealership before wed buy) and I have a CEL on reading a catalyst eff. code so either an 02 or a cat is going bad... hopeing for the 02 first of course.
Re: Highest miles on a Baja (so far!)?
151k on my 06
