I have a Mustang 940 that had over 8000 hours on the meter when I bought it 20some years ago. Meter didn't work and the new one shows 1800 more. Over 10,000 hours for sure. The yanmar diesel is still basically untouched other than a water pump and a couple gaskets. The only real problem with it is the chains and sprockets are all worn out. It still runs and drives, but its only a matter of time... They would probably be the biggest wear issue with a high hour machine. Also hardest to check.
I am currently working on another 940 that I will combine with parts from my original to make one good machine. I looked at the meter on that one and it reads 9500. I bought it with a bad engine, so I have no idea if its still working.
I guess it depend on how much you'll use it. 1-200 hours a year and a 6 or 7000 hour machine would probably last you a long time. 1000 hours a year, not so much.
