Early 92' VR6 on 187,000 miles, burns a bit of oil but still sounds good and pulls well.

128k on my 1.4
84k on my 8V - surprising the block is so pristine inside considering how much I got it for.

110k on a 97 8v GTi.
You only ever need two tools in life. If it moves and it shouldn't use Duct Tape. If it does not move and it should, use WD40.
