I've had it since 2012. It had 262,000 miles on it--drove it home from Marina Del Ray to Modesto. On the road it feels like it will go forever. Since then I've replaced the glow plugs, alternator, starter, and brake booster. The air conditioner does not cool but the heater works great. Front power windows work, right rear window motor and mechanism is OK--I think a new switch will fix it. Left rear window is fixed shut--needs a new regulator and motor. Side windows and rear window are all good glass--windshield has a star rock damage on passenger side about 6 inches to the left of the post and 6 inches up from the bottom--also a small pit on drivers side but nothing in the line of vision. Headliner is basically OK but needs to be glued in place around the sunroof (see pictures). Sunroof works but needs a little help when closing. New rear tires. Engine starts right up and runs smooth even in cold weather. Transmission makes all shifts--first shift is a little "firm" when cold but smoothes out after the car warms up. I think its always been a CA car. It doesn't have any rust that would indicate midwest or east coast. I've got it priced to sell--buy the whole car for just the price of a used engine.
