200,590 a few days ago on my 1992 NA. Daughter using it now.
The NB 1998 has done 13,525km since I bought it on 18-03-2005, and it was
off the road for six weeks as well.

I've got 206,239 on my 89 NA.

I wouldn't be surprised if someone's topped 300k's though

Just passed 250 000 km on my NZ new 1990 model.
143 000 of which I have done myself since I had it the last 7 1/2 years.

Handles better than when it was new with the two lower and seatbelt
tower braces, new KYB shocks and Dunlop sticky tyres.
And as much fun to drive as ever...

Martin

Come to think of it - I'm sure some of the previous owners have wound
the speedo back at some stage - so add maybe an extra 20 000 to 30 000
km ?
