What kind of mileage can I expect of a well cared for Civic motor?

Is there anything to watch out for?

Car's done 175 000km and the motor feels great.

Thanks
We have had exactly that model in the family (my sister has it now) - auto. It is a very well built car and has about 250,000kms on the odo. No major engine work has been done at all - just regular servicing since new and it never misses a beat. No smoke and still pulls very nicely even for an auto. If that car does not make 300k+ I will be very surprised.
