Looking at some RTW travellers tales, the main failure that people seem to have is fuel pump problems, when the filters get blocked, as I understand it on the 800 BMWs, the fuel filter is intregal to the pump and are only supplied as a single unit!
That's progress for you.
Or the voltage regulator being part of the alternator. Yep. That's progress for you. Not quite fuel related, but similar to the above post.

And the diode board/rectifier becoming a part of the alternator.
