My former 2005 Scion (Toyota) Xb had over 300K miles on it. I only stopped driving it because of emissions codes popping up after I thought I had fixed the issues and the alternator needing to be replaced. I just didn't want to bother with it and junked it. The transmission fluid was never changed or even drained and filled, still shifted perfectly. Those first generation boxes are perfect beater cars too.

I think that grand marquee was the best value with such low milage. Some tinted windows and a radar detector you would be set as a teen maybe even some wheels. I love finding those cars with low milage that an old person is selling. They are often excellent!

In the Netherlands you get broke when driving a grand marquee. Roadtax is about 1300 dollar per year. Gasoline is about 8 dollar the gallon....

@HamburgerHelperDeath 11 ай бұрын

I’m in the Midwest of the US. Road tax here is based on the car year so newer is more expensive. I drive a 2006 Lexus ES330. Because it’s a 2006, my annual taxes to renew my license plate tags is $90. The Grand Marquee would be cheap too due to its age. Auto insurance is $65 per month. My ES can also run on regular unleaded which currently is around $3.48 a gallon (3.8 liters). Luckily the Lexus doesn’t usually have any issues! Is Road tax in the Netherlands based on engine size or something?

My friend sold his father's 2004 Lexus 430 with 53k miles for $9k in Texas, it was in mint condition just like new, I wanted it for my son, but it was too expensive. These current prices are absurd to say the least.

I definitely feel the Honda paint pain. Mine is an 05 civic SI made in England with fading paint. So embarrassing, but definitely a cool car. I’m going to repaint it with the original OEM blue. I think Honda finally changed their painting process to last as long as other vehicles, but only after decades of selling people cars that were totally flaking within five years of ownership. I want one of those big land yachts for my trip to work since I work 60 miles from home. My SI needs a break, it was not made for that kind of thing. Especially if I hit traffic and have to shift constantly for three straight miles of bumper-to-bumper crap. I learned how to drive a standard on this car way back in 2010, and I never had to replace my clutch until after I started working far away. There is a very steep bridge that crosses the Mississippi River, it’s always backed up on that bridge. I hate driving up the incline stop and go stop and go with a semi on my back forcing me to shift and move ahead in 6 foot increments. It’s a huge waste of clutch life 😒

Technically speaking I bought my 2007 Honda Accord Sedan 5 speed manual for $1,500 last year. I still drive it but I am saving up to buy my dream car hopefully this year. So as far as I know my car isn't the most fanciest car in the world but it's the best first standard vehicle I ever owned that actually runs and drives. Despite that one time when I had to pay over a little over $2,000 for new OEM parts for my car to make sure it runs and drives properly. Other than that I treat my car with respect so that way when I buy my dream car, it'll make me appreciate my dream car even more by the time I sell my current car to either my dad or someone else.

Were there any repairs needed or preventative maintenance at say 157,000 to 190,000 miles. I have an 04 at 157,00 wondering if its worth holding on to. Thinking, is it worth doing big repairs to get to 190,000 miles. Though, I see many with 250,000 miles that needed nothing major. Your thoughts?? Oh, paint is trapping out, all else appears just fine.
