My 2 are barely run in  compared to those mileages, the 2.6 (2001) has done 67,000 & the 2.2 (2003) has done 78,000 so hopefully lots of life in them !

235,000 is high indeed,but there have been others with as many and even more miles on them.It may well keep going for several more years IF it is regularily serviced. Oil and filter, breathers cleaned - every 4,000 miles. certainly no more than 5,000. :y
Mine has 114,000 on the clock and my estate project has a mere 93,000.
