    Nice!
    I'm doing the opposite; finding out how many miles you can get out of a modded A3 that gets driven pretty much everywhere like I stole the goddamned thing.

    Oh, and I'm over 254k now.

    Original owner, had the car right at 11 years and just rolled over 85,500 miles.

    I've since replaced both door lock actuators, 1 window regulator, hatch lift struts, 1 CV boot, and the radiator.

    Then there's the typical items like battery, brakes and tire.

    So far this year averaging 378 miles per month, 4,536 per year, 2,700 from going to the grocery store. I could cut down on the store runs but they include some really good corners.

    113K and change as of last night. Still box stock. Doesn't throw P0420 anymore, occasionally throws P0325. Next big fix will be the clutch.
