This has been a good car!

I got it about 3 years ago and had only had minor problems with it. I checked the fluids regularly and replaced them when necessary. Had to replace the radiator at one point, but I guess that was a symptom of a larger issue.

The head-gasket is blown now and the car has gone to a better place. It is not worth the cost and hassle to repair. I am being quoted around $3000 to perform the job. And on top of that I have to pay towing for the vehicle.

Too bad, it was a nice car. Reliable until the very end. RIP :-(

Well after spending my life savings on this car then having a minor electrical problem now the car has decided it needs a new head gasket it was overheating and changing the thermostat didn't help so 500 dollars later for all new seals in the engine the piece of sh*t is fixed for now till it does something else next week.
