All the fancy toys still work perfectly on my 260k mile 140. It is amazing. HVAC, door locks, cruise control, transmission modulator - all simple mechanical stuff that broke repeatedly on my olde 123, though when something finally breaks on the 140 it probably can't be fixed with a golf tee. Pretty much all I do is change the oil and replace an ignition coil every once in a while.
