Mine has 245,000 on the odometer, but is only been mine for a month or so. It's on at least its second engine, which the PO told me was about a 100K mile 2.1 with new heads. He put it in when the prior engine put a rod through the top of the case.

The miles really don't bother me because the body is sound and I don't mind working on the mechanicals.
