Didn't even pay attention when my 99 Wagon hit 100k last year Bought it on just over 97,000 I think. I'm more depressed about the arches starting to go!

i dont think 100k is as big an occasion as it was a few years ago.
most modern day cars go on for well over 100k now.
looks cool watching it flick over though

278k on my corrado 16v many moons ago. Only problem I had was a broken front engine mount. Bloke came all the way from Ireland to buy it when it sold. He flew into gatwick with a mate, picked up a mk2 gti and drove to me, then drove the corrado back to dublin. Wonder if its still alive, lol.

Lol, I'll have to dig out the picture I took of the clocks when I changed from KM to MPH, I think it was around the 80k mark iirc.
