183xxx miles, I did the timing belt @ 127000 (IDparts kit). Always serviced on time with LiquiMoly (IDparts kits).
The good; last year of the ALH, runs excellently and get's 40-42ish mpg with my lead-foot fiancee's mostly around town driving. Transmission/clutch good. Everything works. Starts easy in the winter (has an oil pan heater but didn't need it after replacing the battery with the correct one).
We bought the car with 126k, it had a grease car kit which I promptly disabled, it still has the tank in the spare tire area, switches and gauge, solenoids. I don't believe it was driven on grease too much and it has shown zero oil consumption between 10k changes.
Comes with 2 extra wheels with studs, brand new carpets & weather mats & trunk liner.
The bad; Warped or glazed rotor causes some shaking but braking action is still very good. The brake pad warning light is due to a broken wire on the pad itself; replacing pads will fix it. Minor rust at front wheel wells and on driver door pillar. Dent on left rear wheel arch and passenger door. Minor dent on rear lift gate. Front bumper is a bit crooked and one head light was replaced. Duct-tape residue on rear window from temporary license plate. Medical tape on cluster as the brights indicator was too bright.
