Mine sitting on 322k km, re-did motor @ 319k but it was really not needed, but had started smoking (faulty turbo) - did it more for peace of mind as I did not know previous history.

I just sold two we had running at the work shop, one had 628k km and the other 650k km.
They used 4 cylinder heads each during their stay.
The bottom end of the motor is very strong.
