I had 2 over 4 years. One with 188k the other a mint original one on 98k. Other than fluids and tyres and a cam belt change NOTHING went wrong with either car. Very reliable, most reliable of any of the B3/4 cars i have owned, over engineered engine. I did 1500miles a month in both mine and averaged 23mpg in the old one, then coupe did a regualr 28mpg and woudl easy do 30+ on a run.
