| ![]() Those are some mind boggling figures. No repairs except for the new alternator at 5.15 lac km, salute to Toyota reliability. By the way was this Innova with a yellow number plate used for commercial purposes? Just wondering because no private vehicle would run that much in 4 years flat. |

No offences meant but is it possible in real world? It works out to be an average running of 538 km per day continuously for 4 years.. ![]() Even if it is a taxi, it seems too impractical! | |

Senior - BHPian ![]() | ![]() My dad had a 11 year old LML Vespa 150 which had done 75k kms with an overhaul at 65k kms. It ran like a dream and returned 40+ kmpl. He had left the scoot for a service at the service centre(his friend's Bajaj SC). The next day he returned to take it, he learnt that the scooter was accidentally sold off as an exchange vehicle. And finally, it was sold for 15k INR when he had indeed bought it for 13k before 11 years- talk about resale value. PS: The incident is of 2000 when scooter had a decent resale. |

2006, 07, 09, 10 - 365 days 2008 - 366 days Which makes 1460 + 366 = 1826 days Taking the face value of 775000/1826 = 424 Km a day This means, the car is being driven everyday for 424 Km; quite possible if the car was used as TAXI. But thinking practically... Service needs to be done for every 5000 Km, so that means the car is serviced once in every 12 days & when the car is in service it doesn't put 424 Km, recalculating... 1826/12 = 152 days the car was idle (or the car required 152 services) 1826-152 = 1674 This means, the average running per day = 462 Km This is excluding... - The day wasted when the car goes to FC (if it's taxi) - Assuming the car spends only one day at ASC (even when there's more than a Lakh Km on the ODO) - Assuming all the spares were available off the shelf so car didn't wait for any spares to be fixed And 462 Km is like driving everyday from Chennai to Bangalore & back from Bangalore to Krishnagiri...EVERYDAY SANE...driving time is nothing less than 8 hours a day (avg speed of 57 Kmph). This is just the driving time excluding rest, which easily builds to 10-12 hours of WORK everyday for the driver In the event of "frustrated driver", don't know who does the job + how the additional Kms are clocked Whew!!! Now let's spare the 2.1 years & 3.1 Lakh Km Innova for another day... | |

Senior - BHPian ![]() | ![]() Wow Ganesh, you seem to be an expert with excel eh!!! But honestly feel that doing 400 Odd Kms per day would be like asking for too much and without a single break down ![]() My swift car has completed 119000 Kms in 59 months without an engine overhaul. Performance is still flawless and mileage on the highways is around 19 with city showing up a poor 14 KMPL. |

775,000 KM in 4 years averages out to well over 500 KM daily!! ![]() Where have you been driving to mate?!! Just to put things in perspective; that is like going from Mumbai to Ahmedabad OR New Delhi to Jammu one day and then back the next. And this cycle continues. Day in and day out for like 1400 days!! I suppose 500 KM would take anywhere from 8-10 hours to cover. So that calls for a superhuman effort on the part of the driver as well! Incidentally 7.75 Lac KM is also almost exactly the distance to the moon and back. ![]() Last edited by Omtoatom : 14th January 2013 at 17:56. | |
