Good value for money I assume Think that will be km not miles. If they have had 6 engines in that time that is very poor. Should be getting 500,000 off an engine easy. Not aware of any getting 6 or 7 engines. Some were nearing 1m miles when I was on Megabus 2 years ago (especially the Welsh examples), so dont know how many miles they would be up to now! |

miles or kilometers? didnt realise this thread has had this much feedback! i was under the impression most bus dashboards read KM's to match the units of the tacho.

Its easy to say 'miles' instantly as that's the usual unit when talking about speeds, in mph, but most of these will probably be KM's im guessing. I almost had a heart attack when inspecting a 55 plate truck with 1,000,000 on the clock (well it read 000,047) but unfortunately this was in kilometers, so around 600,000 miles.
Are we sure some of these mileages are genuine miles and not KM's?
I thought the norm for a vehicle running a tacho was KM's but as you say this can be altered.

Judging by on Streetlites immediately to the right of where the reading is, it says 'Miles', I'd guess its measuring in Miles! |

Apologies, my post wasn't aimed at yours in particular but more the whole thread! |
