For me it was a 2000 Saab 9-3 that had 294,000km when I bought it and 397,000km on it when I got rid of it.

John-Paul Drake (the manager of the business that refused to refund the guy) is a real character:
2001 Audi A4 Avant: ~488k…but possibly 500k, because the speedo/odometer stopped working a few years ago.

There was a guy here in Australia who hoarded $10k worth of toilet paper and hand sanitizer at the start of last year, then tried to return it to the shop he bought it from (using a team of 20 people to get around purchase limits). It did not go well...

My ‘01 Forester is at 265,000 miles of ungentle use—admittedly a bit of the Subie of Theseus with most of the powertrain overhauled and, I think, its third new windshield—but still being dailied. Bought it at 140k with recent new head gaskets and timing kit and it just keeps going.
