But 230,000 is nothing.
Have just seen the world record car on TV, having 4.6 million Km's on the clock with a total of three engines...

What kind of car was it?

I was waiting for that question and it hurts answering it:

A God damn f***ing MB...

It was used as a cab in Turkey, I think it was Istanbul. The car was overhauled 11 times and is still in fantastic condition... Now in the MB museum...



But they also showed a guy driving his 7series for more than 500,000 Km's now - still with the first engine and transmission!

But the 7series is pretty impressive too. It's a 735 and there is everything original. Nothing switched out yet. That's more than 300,000 miles.

A young man, wanted to get his beautiful blonde wife something nice for their first wedding anniversary. So, he decides to buy her a cell phone. She is all excited and she loves her phone. He shows her and explains to her all the features on the phone.

The next day the blonde goes to get her hair done. Her phone rings and it's her husband. "Hi hon," he says, "How do you like your new phone?"

"I just love it, it's so small and your voice is clear as a bell. But there's one thing I don't understand. How did you know I was at the beauty parlor?"

No, THIS is scraping ...

On the first day of their Honeymoon, the very naive blonde virgin bride slipped into a sexy but sweet nightie and with great anticipation, crawled into bed, only to find that her new Catholic husband had settled down on the couch.

When she asked him why he was apparently not going to make love to her, he replied, "Because it's Lent."

Almost in tears, she remarked, "Well, that is the most ridiculous thing I have ever heard! To whom did you lend it, and for how long?"

EVEN LOWER!

A painting contractor was speaking with a woman about her job. In the first room she said she would like a pale blue. The contractor wrote this down and went to the window, opened it, and yelled out "GREEN SIDE UP!" In the second room she told the painter she would like it painted in a soft yellow. He wrote this on his pad, walked to the window, opened it, and yelled "GREEN SIDE UP!" The lady was somewhat curious but she said nothing. In the third room she said she would like it painted a warm rose color. The painter wrote this down, walked to the window, opened it and yelled "GREEN SIDE UP!"

The lady then asked him, "Why do you keep yelling 'green side up'?"
"I'm sorry," came the reply. "But I have a crew of blondes laying sod across the street.
