Remember old Timex ads?
The old "It takes a licking but keeps on ticking" campaign? Same thing goes here. This brave little car has rolled over large rocks, hit potholes, been through hailstorms, sandblasted by dump trucks, had soda spilled on it, carried overripe Girl Scouts home from camp, and had an elderly dog drool on the backseat. But it keeps on rolling, up to 142,000 and still going.
No major issues. Most of my repairs have been self-inflicted. (See above comment re: rock.) Six years later, I still get between 38-41 mph. Three sets of tires, two batteries, and a new set of brake pads later -- I'm ready to put another 100,000 on it.
