That's too bad. I have 189,000 miles on mine (304,000 km) and it's never let me down. I haven't had to do anything but regular maintenance on it. I wanted to replace it with something a bit newer and nicer, but had to replace the car my wife and daughter share, instead. Fortuately, I don't drive very much so it will probably hold out for a few more years.

Thats the way to be. I ignore the urge and ride whats paid off until it just doesn't make sense any more. The "newer spiffy" car models will still be around when its time.
