How about the I-4 from VW?  I've put over 200K miles on mine, a friend put
over 227 K miles on his, another is working on 250K miles and all that with
just semi-regular oil changes and maintenance.  Mine saw over 50K miles of
nothing but pizza delivery and my friends over 100K miles of pizza delivery.

By the way, my Jetta is still on the road accumulating more miles under a
different lead-footed owner.
