Well, my 93 Eurovan, which shares the I-5 motor with Audis (has Digifant,
though) sits at 404,000 kms, which translates into 252,000 miles. Strong as
an ox. My son's 96 UrS6 is at 325,000 kms - 203,000 miles. In both cases
the odometers work (in the Eurovan, the odo is powered by cable). The other
Audis decided to stop counting miles quite a while ago :)
Radek.
