bought used, has been good/reliable for 11 years so far
I bought this car used, and it's been a good, reliable car for me. I've had it 11 years now, and hope to have it at least another 11. I've only had to have a hose replaced, tires, battery, a/c compressor a couple years ago, and just now, the starter. Not bad for having it virtually maintenance free for 11 years, and it being 16 years old. It does everything I need it to do, and is a comfortable ride, easy to drive. I'm not great about doing regular maintenance, just get problems fixed when they arise, but this car doesn't care, it still works fine for me. The mechanic who replaced the starter was surprised that it appeared to be the original starter, so I guess those wear out sooner than 16 years? I don't know. All I know is this car has been almost flawlessly reliable for 11 years, and I hope to drive it many, many more.
