Just wondering what type of miles a S6 engine will do, mine has now done 33,000 but the head has been replaced and has done around 17k with the new head.
What mileage has yours done?

There seems to be a lot of used ones at about this mileage.

I bought my Tuscan Red Rose new (delivered October 1st, 2000). It's my everyday car and has now done about 45,000. I can't be certain of the mileage due to the number of times the speedo has failed! I'm sure there may be a handful of higher mileage cars about but I'm pretty confident I have the longest period of ownership of a single S6-engined car.

It has had 3 seaside holidays (2 full rebuilds; one top end only). I'm on my second flywheel and fourth clutch (the notorious breaking fingers problem).
