There's vans on here done twice those miles.
We've got an 08 plate with 170,000 on it, and I'd take it anywhere!

Mines the same runs no bother at all. Still flies. I love it.

Wow...220k miles.!! She's just run in.. :wink:

I feel rather left out...my 2008 Mk7 has just turned over 64,000kms, which is only ~40k miles. Methinks I've got plenty left in the old girl yet.
