Front suspension wore out a number of parts, including steering rack, strut bushes, and spring top holders.
Master cylinder became blocked by the sealing rubber used to locate the reservoir, causing minor braking loss.
Alternator brushes wore out at 198K.
This car still looks new from a distance, and most work colleagues think its less than 5 years old.
The engine was severely abused, as was the suspension by me, despite this the car always started and ran sweet.
Amazingly reliable, possibly helped by continuous use and abuse. These cars don't like to sit unused.
After 200,000 miles its burning a little oil at just over 6000 rpm, so I thought it might be time for an overhaul. So it's in the garage while I bought a spare 360 GLT low mileage (120K) for £550.
Mok, oko.
