557,000 Miles and Counting.....
Great little story. I figured we could all appreciate this
I did a search and was amazed I hadn't seen this posted yet.

it is a repost... but 500k pales in comparison to 900,000 miles on a 1999 model year vehicle.

That VW averages out to 224 miles a day, seven days a week 365 days a year for 11 years. If they work a 5 day work week with two weeks off for vacation it's 327 miles a day for 11 years. If my math is correct. Every VW NB that people I know have owned have been POS. Do a search. Horrible car. How this person managed these miles and the thing is still running is a quite a feat.
Then again it is a VW, and they do have electical problems. Maybe the odo. malfunctioned? That would be my guess, but anything is possible.

Nothing unusual. Saab and Volvo do it all the times. This is special
