01 and 105k and its never gone better,absolute tyre shredding Hotrod.

There are plenty up at 170k+ and still running perfectly well you really cant beat N/A for longevity.

March 01 for me, 106k miles.

i think member 'highmiler' on the m5 board has one over 250k miles

I was originally worried about buying a performance 'high' mileage car but i was reassured by what i read and haven't looked back

Thanks

Matt
