Default BF2 - keep or replace ?

G’day. I’ve got a 2006 XT with the ZF and factory sport suspension, so basically an XR6. Nearly all the kays are highway kays, always run on 98, doesn’t use oil or water.
Done the rotors, hoses, oil cooler, centre bearing, oil pump and control blades.
Ripped out the roof liner when the cloth sagged and couldn’t reglue it.
It’s used on a regular 200 kay run.
Has done 330k km.
So the question is - keep or replace ? I need a reliable car.
Another BF (don’t like the FG screen controls) maybe ?
What do BF XR6s with the ZF and around 150k kays go for ?

Keep it, a car with unknown maintenance history regardless of kms is more of a risk than one that you know the history of.
