Who has highest recorded mileage on here?

Alright lads

Im driving a 97 BMW 318is with 185,000 _miles_ on the clock. Ive had her 3 years now, with regular long drives (5hrs each way) and she still purrs like a lion. Would this be considered high mileage?

Anything over a 100 in this country is considered high mileage, be it km's or miles, lol.

74,000 miles for me and counting.
