If your willing to let go of any kind of pride I would recommend an early 90's Saturn SL. Super easy to work on and theres a ton of them in the J Y for parts. You got 4 or 5 in your local CL for under $800 right now. I got mine ten years ago after my ex-wife thought she seized the motor, I went out and added 4 quarts of oil and drove it home. Now granted it goes though oil like mad but I wouldn't hesitate to drive it any were. its got 220000 mile on it now and 100000 of those I did since I got it ten years ago. I kinda wish it would die, I would like a change. Just a thought.smile.gif

 

PS. try to avoid the ones with automatic belts, they suck.

Yeah, I hear good things about Saturn in spite of their somewhat boring nature as just simple basic transportation. I hear they're reliable as all hell, just as my Corolla was. Went and checked out a Mini today. Just may get it, not sure yet. Hainz, keep in mind im only a 2 year mechanic. I'm still poor :D

What do you mean 20+MPG? My 76 gets 30mpg after I rejetted the Weber! I just wish I had it ready to sell, so I could help out. It will be a while since I can't do squat til I recover from my back surgery.:P
