    1991 mk2 golf gti 16v, original engine and gearbox, new dashboard and doorcards, heated rear windsreen and central locking dont work. Only failed its mot on the brake pressure regulator and a 50p sized rust hole in the n/s/r arch, my 1995 mk3 1.6 failed on alot more.

    sitting at 178180 miles, and touch wood, running beautifully.

    im proud of my golf

    '91 Mk2 Golf 1.6 Driver - just hit 120k. Car is without fault! touch wood! I'm sure there are many, many more miles to go

    I'd be amazed if my 4-year-old Passat reached even 100k

    I have a 2001 A4 115 PD Avant which has done 147k and feels a lot better than many cars with fewer miles. Gearbox synchromesh starting to 'catch' a bit into 2nd and 3rd but that is being picky. Still has original clutch. in my opinion, the good thing with Audi's is that the interiors wear very well. Still feels a nice place to sit.

    My mates 2000 Peugeot 406 110 Hdi has just passed 210k miles, feels fine to drive and still averages over 50mpg. No wonder they are popular taxis!

    The A6 is on 83k miles now, not high in total but it goes for it's first MoT in two weeks time, so not bad going so far.
    Current - 2002 Audi A6 2.5TDi Avant quattro (loved), 2012 Ford S Max 2.2 tdci Titanium X (serves a purpose), 1983 VW Golf GTI campaign (loved)
    Previous - 2007 Volvo XC90 D5 SE Lux (gone, hated), 2002 Audi A3 1.9TDi Sport quattro (gone, liked and missed), 2011 Audi A6 2.0TDi SE (gone, loved and missed), 2007 Audi A6 2.0TDi SE (gone thankfully), 1999 Audi A6 2.5TDi quattro (gone, loved and missed)

    The way I figure it, if it's done all those thousands of miles, there're can't be too much wrong with it.
