I have owned this vehicle for 10 years. It has survived my teenagers and is still trucking along! It always starts and gets you from point A to point B. It would be a great fixer upper for someone with the know how. It does have a lot of quirky old car issues. The hood latch is rusty and not sure it is secure. Just to be safe I secured it with a bungee from underneath. There is a bad wire and the dash lights do not work. There is a bad wire or switch and the brake lights stay on all the time. If you pull the fuse when you park it does not drain the battery. When you leave you pop it back in. These are easy fixes if you like to tinker and have the time. Tires, battery, timing belt and ball joints replaced about a year ago. A/C compressor also. It has a rattle up front, have not had checked out yet. Perhaps a spring needs attention or something in that area. Interior is tan. Okay condition for age, could benefit from a good carpet cleaner. Spare tire and jack in the trunk. Starts every time, shifts great and smooth and has good acceleration. It's an old car, it is what it is.
