I'm a few hundred miles short of 15000 miles on my baby- in less than 6 months.

Does anyone have more than 100,000 miles and if yes then how was the experience upto now,esp. reliability?

I put 40k miles per year on, and I just placed an order for a 530. I have watched this site for couple of years and the complaints with software and mechanicals has decreased substantially. I am hoping for an uneventful four years and 160k.

Done 33,000 miles at approx 18months - still going fine, feels relatively new to me.
Most problems were seen and fixed by about 10,000.
