I'm counting on these cars being reliable as I just bought a 2008 S with 190,000 KMs (120,000 Miles) and its all original, even the brakes, except the tires..."he says pounding on the wood table"! A friend has a 2002 with over 250,000 KMs (155,000 miles) and his is all original except for brakes and tires. Both cars have all regular maintenance performed but my car has seen mostly highway miles and thus the brakes which I will have to do this summer. I will keep a close eye on things such as the alternator and water pump and cam prepared to replace parts before they become an issue.
