I will be happy if I get 20k-25k out of mine and I know of people who only get 10k-15k.
...like ME! 15-17K tops. I think frequency of rotor replacement has much to do with the mileage on the pads.

My W124 just got on the dark side of 150K and still no headgasket issues. Evap replacement, yes! Other usual W124 anomalies have come and gone, but overall, it holds up well under daily use.
