Mine's hit 151k now. I've only done 2k in it since I bought it as a second car. Just sold my a3 though so the lude will be my new daily until I choose a new car. Will be interesting to see how I get on using it every day

178k before I rear-ended a Range Rover Sport, and whilst rebuilding decided to replace it with a lower mileage JDM engine (had done about 60k - now it's had another ~40k added since).

I still think the UKDM engine I took out was stronger than the JDM engine I put in!

What he said ^^^

Chassis on 219k now though.

154k for my 3g, and just had rear arches welded, she's not 'main dealer' serviced, but several local garages have looked after her pretty well for me, never more than 50 odd quid in extra parts needed for each M.O.T. One came up last year on sleaze-bay with 250k on it, B20 A7 engine, same as mine

I have no idea on the exact mileage of mine. When I bought it I didn't know that it had the wrong clocks in (clocks for a VTEC, not a non-VTEC), I'm guessing it was an easy way of converting to MPH. As such, I'm not certain that the mileage it was showing was correct. I've since swapped clocks again, and can't remember what the old was reading, or what the new was reading when I put them in.

TLDR?

I'm guessing it's done about 150k +

Regularly serviced by me, and once up to temperature, dogged daily by me.
Still runs sweet (ish)
If it pops, it will give me an excuse to put an H22 in there

109K on my 5th gen. The only issue to worry me was around 5K miles ago where I got a ticking noise. After changing the oil, cam belt & pulleys, and water pump the ticking went

It still puts out the power it should too.

150k on my 1994 BB4 on the original engine (no mods or major work)
Speedo reads 170k due to when i changed to ukdm el dials to remove the convertor chip

doesnt really matter as i will never part with it

Mine had a H22A2, and at the time I swapped it with an A7 3 years ago the car was well over 400 000 km

The old A2 went in a 3rd gen and is still running...
