Mine is almost 10 years old. Even though is low mileage Mother Nature is relentless. Tires, wheels and brakes all replace not for wear but for weather and moisture. Otherwise, fairly bullet proof. |

Everything. What a piece of junk. The longer you own one the quicker you learn just how many corners they cut. A plastic bolt on the clutch pedal? Chrome Wheels corrode, fuel pump went, window motor went, and many more issues. |

Multiple visits to the dealership for the A/C, suspension, etc. |
