This vehicle has been treated well since my mother-in-law purchased it new. She only drove it around town and sold it to my wife shortly before we married. We continued to take good care of the car, driving it only to and from work without incident. We planned to keep it for many years, but have been blessed with twins and need to purchase a larger vehicle. As the photos indicate, the vehicle looks excellent both inside and out. Owned only by non-smokers, there are no carpet stains, rust spots, dents, or major scratches. Photos of the few small areas with minor paint scrapes or blemishes are included. The engine and drive train are in good working order. Heat and A/C work great! Rear tires have plenty of tread though the front is a bit more worn (see photos). Recent maintenance includes: Serpentine belt replaced this month Oil change at 131,500 miles Coolant flush December 2009 New battery in the last 12 months I should mention there are a few minor issues a potential buyer should be aware of. The tape player and cruise control are currently non-functional. In addition, the front brakes have a slight squeak when pressed. Brakes work great! When I last took the vehicle in for an oil change my mechanic indicated that the front brakes and pads had about 25% of their life remaining. There is also an intermittent low wash and service engine light which I had checked. The low wash is a sensor as it seems to go away when I refill the fluid. The windshield washers work great. The service engine error code shows only a faulty EGR Valve. My mechanic stated this is likely a bad sensor as well. Mileage has been consistent at 20-24 mpg depending on the amount of city / highway driving. Upon review of the history report you'll see that the vehicle was involved in a front end collision back in 2004. This was a minor slow-speed collision that only caused a few scrapes on the bumper. I've included a photo of the bumper so you can see there was minimal, isolated damage. The report also seems to indicate a lien on the vehicle. I'm not sure why this has appeared as my wife and I are the sole title holders and have no unpaid bills related to this vehicle. This has been a great overall car for my family! This is your chance to have a nice vehicle for a very reasonable price. Please take a close look at the photos and descriptions but do not hesitate to ask any questions. If you have a feedback rating of less than 10, please contact me in advance to confirm your interest. For your convenience, I am willing to meet the buyer within 75 miles of Cincinnati.
