88 9kT, 226,000 miles, owned since new.
Original engine and turbo, original 5Sp trans, clutch replaced at 180,000 miles.
Major engine/trans work: none.
Oil consumed between 3000 mile changes: less than 1/2 qt, mostly from leakage. Tried synthetic oil but it makes the oil leaks worse. Went back to the liquid dinosaur stuff. I may try a synthetic blend and see how that works. At least I 'll get some of the benefits of synthetic that way. Maybe I should just track down and fix the oil leaks!
Repairs (not counting wear & tear items like brakes, batteries etc.) needed so far: Rubber block in shift linkage - 4 times, fuel pump, heater core, heater fan motor, clutch master cylinder, alternator - twice, climate control module ($$$, even used), passenger side power window mechanism (broke trying to lower it when it was frozen).
Times car left me on the side of the road since 1988: Three times. 1. Clutch master cylinder; 2. Fuel pump.; 3. Shift linkage.
