65,000 mpc on my LCR.
It was only just starting to slip, but I drive like a dick
My old Zetec-S was 55k
I've never had a new gearbox though on any vehicle I've owned, or any vehicle my family members have owned.

Another one bites the dust lol
My old gti was on the original box with 100k miles on the clock still going strong and it got more abuse than my Vxr did with only 34k miles.
