It cuirrently has 57k on it, which isn't bad for a 12 year old car. I use it once a week and can probably account for at least 10k of those miles.

I have an E reg ren 9 with 65k on the clock, i bought it a few years ago as my current car died, it had 59k on the clock then. it did cost me a water pump (£100 fitted) after about 2k. its in my garage now as have me a4 avant with 180k and still running like a dream

. its all in the way you talk to your car

i just bought a 95 audi a4 with 149,673 on the clock and it seems to be pretty good i only paid £600 i have a slight clunking during "spirited"

steering. i thnk this could be the suspension mount upper bar things so hopefully not too expensive to fix... hmmm i've heard that one before!

My N Reg Passat has just clocked 162,000 and passed another MOT. Fingers crossed for another years trouble free motoring.

My 2001 130tdi manual Passat estate now has 225,000 miles on the clock. It was pretty fine up to 190k apart from the necessary 'ingress of water through the pollen filter' and the absolutely mandatory leaking rear washer pipe making the boot release fail. VW contributed to both bills as they are such common faults. At 190k I needed a rebuild of the gearbox (1300 quid incl new clutch and Dual Mass Flywheel), and since then have had broken offside front spring (£210), new nearside drive shaft (£200), new cat on exhaust (£210) and new drivers window motor and belts (can't remember how much?). So boys and girls, the lesson is get rid at 189,999 miles! On the other hand it could go on for years, still goes like the clappers and does 50mpg.

My 2000 W-reg 1.9tdi PD Passat has got 172,200 miles with the best part of putting 40,000 miles on it with a slipping auto gearbox and hardly no reverse!
