I've had an ME Super, an SP 1000 and an LX fail on me at inopportune times (the ME Super's advance mechanism died the day before an important shoot, the SP 1000's advance mechanism died of old age during an interesting photographic exhibition, and the LX has been bad twice: once it froze up in the cold, understandably, but more recently it appears to have developed a light leak). My 67 has been rock solid for four years now, touch wood. There's really not a lot to go wrong with it, and while it does require a battery for the shutter, the battery is tiny and lasts a very long time, so backups are easy to pack and you don't need too many.
