Hasn’t driven it in the winter. He has had the valve cover gasket replaced, oil pan gasket replaced, replaced all the plugs and has changed oil every 5k miles. I have him down to 6k on this car. Would this be one you would buy or would you stay away with it having 160k on it? It is a very beautiful car
That sounds like a deal. These cars can go 300k+ mi with regular maint. You may have to replace a bearing here and there. Differential bearings are a bit more expensive incl labor. Also ensure water pump and thermostat was replaced.
