Default Highest mileage B5?

I just cracked 200K driving through Palm Springs at 112F. Still running like a champ. I was wondering what the highest mileage anyone has seen on a B5? Cheers

Maybe we should start a over 200K club.

this is a reassuring thread. 200k means the motor should be on its third timing belt? DAMN lol

ast03,

I am confused. Do you drive an American car?

I saw one B5 sell on Ebay with around 320K. Please keep the posts coming as some threads such as "All the things that go wrong A4s" are kind of disheartening. Maybe we can shed some light on the longevity of these awesome cars!!!
