I am at 171K myself. It's a 2004 non S with factory 5 speed. I may get to over 200K by the end of the year at this rate! Great to see so many other people with high milage Mini's still on the road. Mine is not burning oil, and I am having no major problems that require attention.

I'm in! Here's a fun pic for you guys....



I also managed to get a pic at 111,111 with 111.1 on the tripometer.... the real kicker is that by chance, my range left on the tank ended up at 111 as well after a couple minutes of idling on the side of the road to get the pic!

2006 Cooper with 117,000 and rolling on down the road:

In warranty issues: Thermostat housing, driver seat back, passenger side motor mount.

Out of warranty issues: Passenger side air bag fault (not worth fixing).

Heading in for new tires and brakes next week.

Just turned 130,000 on my 2004 Cooper S. Planning on a new clutch, LCA bushings, Konis, rear main seal, etc. in the next few months. Otherwise, running great.

My '04 Chili Red S with a 17% supercharger pulley and 6 speed is about to turn 145k with no major problems. Original clutch and supercharger. Changed out all the rubber in the suspension when it started to disintegrate and am still chasing some pesky oil leaks after changing all the usual suspects. Next projects are replacing squeaky strut mounts and a power steering delete kit to replace a noisy pump. Otherwise I just drive it like I stole it with multiple runs from Atlanta to southern Illinois pulling a cute little trailer. Rock on little MINI!
