Is your R231 SL a high mileage car? If so, HOW high?

Another member posted about servicing his R231 saying it has 96,000 miles. So, I thought it might be fun to hear from others out there. Can anyone top 96K in a R231? Just curious.

Just under 50,000 miles on my SL400 and about 140,000 on my C350. I'm now retired and no longer commute ~140 miles round trip daily, so it's gonna be a while before I hit high mileage on my SL. But based on what I've read about newer models, I'm happy to stay with my R231.
