These cars are possibly one of the most cheapest cars to maintain.
Just oil change every 7.5k miles. Easiest oil change ever.
Spark plugs at 80k miles. Hardest change ever.
Alternator at 100k miles
Tranny fluid at 50k or so.

That's about it.

There are only two words I ever saw blocked here. You can't abbreviate Richard and you can't mention cuddly kitties.

Yeah, Barney Rubble …. but since there aren't any mechanical / hydraulic disc brakes you're going to go thru lots of shoes so you can stop, over the vehicles lifetime = high cost to maintain = no bueno

Give him a break guys. This car isn't everyone cup of tea. It's my cup of tea... coffee, water and an ice cold beer.

Hey op, buy an old BMW as your daily. They seem to be very reliable. *lol*

I guess we should just get used to seeing riced out cars. It's always been part of car culture starting with the cavemen..

I don't know. Fred looks pretty dismayed by it.


He seemed to like it when it was still stock
