The Fun Bus, (1987 Syncro) still has the original engine including heads and gaskets at 283K. Unfortunately 4th gear broke again a couple of months ago and I just haven
T begun to take care of that. This will be the 3rd major trans repair.

Original, wow.
That’s impressive, I’m a silent interloper feeding off the experts here.
Have rebuilt engine and replaced heads.

Still here and sifting and reading the valuable jewels of info. dropped by the generous experts.  Drive my 91 Westy about once a week.  Original engine with original heads sneaking past 240K miles.  Just did a tune up as I hadn't done one in a while and it wasn't accelerating as it should.  All better now.

We should do this roll call on some kind of regular basis so that we get to hear from the shy members occasionally.  :)
