Nice job! Sounds like you're doing great maintenance, and should have no worries...
At 200K, going for 300, I might repack the CV joints, to get fresh boots on there...new grease doesn't hurt and you're lessening the chance the old boots will crack/tear with age and take one of joints out prematurely.
Keep an eye on the tie rod ends and general suspension condition (seems like you already are.) That's not a 900 issue per se, just a high-mileage thing.
If I'm keeping a car a long time I ususally also go thru around 150K or so and clean all the ground connections I can find. That might be a little obsessive but the connections can get oxidized and throw sensors off.
Keep a 60K interval on the upper idler pulley if you don't already, avoid a small heap of inconvienence.
Otherwise, keep going! Get a pic of that odo at 300!
