Only 70k but my water pump went last month. Car dropped all it's coolant and overheated at 2am in the middle of nowhere. Fun night!

Hey coupedan - when I bought my first 2 litre I thought the diff had a problem - turned out to be a rear wheel bearing. The point is the wheel bearing noise was nothing like any wheel bearing noise I'd ever heard before - I was convinced it had to be the diff. It went back 3 times to the garage I bought if from before it went to a specialist who diagnosed and fixed it.
Just a thought and in case there was a chance. I hope it is as straightforward (no fingers crossed emoji available)
All the best with your coupe.

Wow - that is some motoring well done
I've had my Coupe for 26 months and gone from 44,000 to it's current 67,000. It is my daily driver but in reality as I work from home it tends to be used for three or four days per week at most.
I admit to occasionally thinking about selling it but I genuinely don't know what I'd replace it with. My indecisiveness is not helped by frequently having passers by commenting on what a nice looking car and I then think I must be mad to even think of selling it. The other thing is that it has proved to be supremely reliable needing just servicing and tyres.

I just recalled this thread from last year - proper mileage!
viewtopic.php?f=2&t=90568&p=1334875&hil ... s#p1334875
Certainly made me feel much more confident about longevity!

Thanks for that Paul, I'm sure it is the diff though as the noise doesn't change under load (Around corners) but is speed related.
I don't want to curse anything just yet, however the noise has been persistent for a good 20k miles or so and nothing has changed (Just something I have learned to live with)

I agree, it's a facelift tho. So someone might take a bite...
