I bought my beautiful unwanted bastard 04 in 2006. Currently, all fluids are original except engine oil and coolant with 13K on the clock.
Besides the headliner, battery and tires, the RCM is the only part I had to replace.
I had a very minor transmission fluid leak near the radiator, but it fixed itself. I guess as long as I don't hit a big pothole, it would be a permanent fix.
Other the battery drains from the lights on the instrument cluster now; I really don't have any problems with the car.
The cigarette lighter socket doesn't work too. I may try to replace the socket later on as per this video:
