'05 MCSc with 27k, she had 20k when I got her Feb '09. Not a garage queen, but a weekender for sure - my commuting ride seats about 60 people and has a driver...

My 05 convertible has 52K...so far, NO problems (except a roof issue common to all 05 cars a few years back, which resulted in a new roof)

I drive it about half the year, 90% highway miles (my other car is a 330xi, much better during the rainy season here!)

I'm hoping to get over 100K on it, and if, god forbid, it dies sooner I will definitely, positively, be looking for another 05 - I am addicted to that supercharger whiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiine!!!

Yep! Some old woman bought it cash in 04. Kept all the records, window sticker, etc. I was the first person to call her about the car and put down a deposit the first day she posted it for sale. :D I couldn't let it slip through my grasp.

So, here it is, a long time later. I'm about to hit the 5 year mark of having my '06 R53, and I'm up to a whopping 37k miles. It probably doesn't help that, after years of autobahn running and epic trips through the Swiss Alps, plus trips to the likes of the Nürburgring, my car and I now live on an island. Not exactly conducive to long road trips.

Still love my car, still can't imagine driving anything else.

Got mine in Dec. 2010 with 6000 mls on the clock. Now it's at 27,700, I admit it's my weekend toy. Trying to keep it nice to pass on to my son when the time comes.
