I've been hearing a whining noise coming from the front right engine bay during acceleration, which I think could be my drive belt telling me to replace it. So next up, planning on replacing drive belt, spark plugs, and engine coolant.

100,000 miles and I bet still running strong. I have around 45,000 miles and so far had to replace passenger door actuator, rear driver door window regulator, both headlights due to condensation (it was pretty much water inside). Thank god for warranty.

Oliver!!!
Okay, seriously. I wouldn't buy a Bentley with 168k miles for $8k. That's a heck of a gamble that you're going to get $8k worth of use out of it before it finally kicks the bucket.

Driving south on I-5 passing Boeing Field on the way home I hit the mark!
Purchased her 4/23/05.
100,000 miles baby!!! She dont sit in the garage!
So far, replaced front rotors and the battery(red top). Everything else is still original including the spark plugs. From 1k miles to 65k miles I had wheels and suspension on it. So right now i'm running stock suspension and tires. Yeah boy!!!

The iridium plugs are extremely durable and in fact, durability is the reason the iridium is used. The electrodes are very small which causes them to get much hotter during ignition. The extra heat "burns" off any carbon deposits. This is only possible because of the thermal erosion resistance of iridium. Changing them every two years is beyond necessary and quite a waste of money given how much more expensive these plugs are.
No issues so far
