Great little car

When I bought my Saturn I never expected to have it for 11 years! Hardly a problem. Tires replaced once; brakes replaced once; just keeps going! Great gas mileage. One downfall; burns a lot of oil so you have to keep up on changes, not the greatest in the snow.

I bought the SL2 to keep a year or 2. So here we are almost 8 years later. For what it is, it's fun to drive. It hardly ever breaks. It just keeps going... with regular maintenance of course! It's had the usual needs for an older car... it's had a few sets of pads and rotors... just last month new shoes, hardware and wheel cylinders...the exhaust give up the ghost once. About the only thing outside of an O2 sensor is it needs an ABS pump now! I love driving it and just can't get myself to part ways with it! GREAT LITTLE CAR!!!

This is our 3rd S series car, and like the first 2, a very reliable ride. The S series is very simple, economical transportation. Routine maintenance is all that has been needed. This car gets around 32 MPG, 36 on the highway. We bought this one with 70k miles. It now has 200K miles. 2 sets of tires,drive belt, and and cleaned the EGR valve once. Thats it. You will get bored with it before you wear it out!

I am the original owner of this SL2, which turns 9 years old this week. I cannot say enough how much I love this car. It's a workhorse and is always reliable. I've had the brakes and transmission replaced once. It does use a bit more oil now, but that's normal for a car of its age. Gas mileage remains superb; I often get 40 mpg on the highway and recently got as much as 34 while city driving. Little things have broken over the years (rear window and moonroof motors, the radio power knob broke off and last month, the trip odometer knob broke) but the car itself still purrs along almost like new. Take care of your Saturn and it will take care of you!
