When it breaks, I'll sell it...
260,000 plus miles. Bought it new. 4cylinder automatic. No problems I couldn't fix myself, although I'm a mechanical engineer by training. Hasn't been babied, but never abused, either. Used as a daily driver to ferry kids and cargo, and commute. Little rust for its age. Interior, except for stained floormats, is almost as new. Everything still works. Tires, belts, hoses, plugs/wires, shocks/struts, brakes, and battery have been replaced. An ignition module and radiator were the only significant failures. Hoping to find a late model "tall wagon" as a replacement that'll give as good of service.
MPV review
Very nice for a van, one of the best things about this van is that it is very reliable, one of the best cars I ever owned and surely one of the most reliable.
MPVs last forever!
With regular maintenance and care, I'm convinced that Japaneese built MPVs (not the new ones with the ford motors) will last virtually forever. Mine has never let me down in 10 yrs of active use. Best car I've owned (and I've owned about 15)! Highly recommended!
I love this car
I just recently got my mazda but it has been a life saver. I have two kids (so far) and this van has made it possible for me to feel safe with my kids in the car, it has been a fun and reliable vehicle to have.
OLD FAITHFULL
THE DESIGN FOR THE TIMING BELT IS NOT THE BEST: HAD TO REPLACE IT 3 TIMES DUE TO PULLEYS FAILING (AFTER 115000 MILES) DID ALL THE WORK MYSELF OTHERWISE IT WOULD HAVE COST ME AN ARM AND A LEG. VALVE COVER LEAK AROUND 95000 MILES, AFTER THAT NO MORE LEAKS. THAT IS TO ME EXCEPTIONAL SINCE ALL MY OTHER "OLD CARS" LEAKS. AT 135000 MILES IT IS IN PERFECT MECHANICAL CONDITION. DOES NOT BURN ANY OIL. FUSSY ABOUT TYPE OF ENGINE OIL OR VALVES WILL KNOCK. (uSE ONLY HAVOLINE 10W30 OR VALVOLINE HIGH MILEAGE.
