Default Who has the most miles...?

I just rolled up to my fiances house and rolled to 126,200. Just seeing if anyone has more. I am happy with every thousand that rolls by. I was really worried about hitting 100K but now I look forward to it.

The best that I have seen for a drop top is 116K.

My car is a 1999, A4, Z/28, 'Vert.

Some mods but nothing to crazy.
