Default A Red Letter Day - I've put over 100K on my 86.5!

1986.5 Porsche 928: mileage when purchased, 5/19/07, 130,114. Mileage yesterday, 5/30/19, 230,225!. 100,111 miles in 12 years of great driving! ONE breakdown only (alternator)! Boring maintenance list to follow if I get around to it (currently changing trans fluid/filter).

Remarkable! Let's see, 100,000/12 = 8,333 miles per year. You must like it. It likes you, too.

Very impressive. Without adding up the receipts, what major repairs have been done to the car? Thanks.
