I have a 93 with 278,000 miles. It runs well, does 32 mpg (UK) and easily passed its emission tests last month. Electronics, CAT and oxygen sensor all original, the engine is untouched.
Servicing is the thing, and not doing short runs. I regularly blast off mud from underneath, and have rust-treated all the likely spots based on experience from having had an 83 before. I don't see why it shouldn't last as long as your older model.
