dude my cars done 290K and goin great!
might want to think about replacing the whole driveshaft instead of just the cv boot as if the driveshaft is worn, it will crack another boot later on down the track.
I just got my timing belt replaced and with it the seals you mentioned, plus the sump seal (get your mechanic to check that)
With the timing belt mechanism apart its a good idea to get the bearings on your drive pullies replaced and a new drive belt. (bearings cost me an extra $50 each).

Another good idea is to get all of your engine mounts checked (make sure they really get in there and look for any cracking on them) coz if you need to replace any of the mounts, that would be the best time to do so.

Good luck :D
