From what I've seen on this forum, these cars can have a lot of life left in them at 200K. Less valuable, of course.
That is why everyone is asking what exactly happened to the engine. If it is D-chunk that broke out from the cylinder, chances are it will need new engine.

That being said, with 200k on the odo there are other things that will need attention soon.
