"Cute car with great gas mileage and very reliable"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Needed New brake pads every year

Vinyl seats ripping from heat

Needed new engine at 110,000; not worth it.

General comments?

This car is VERY basic, but VERY reliable.

I had a stick and was pretty easy to drive.

Quite small car, but great for students and driving around town.

Trunk actually larger than it looks.

Had car for 4 years and only needed to get new brake pads every year. No other expenses really (besides oil changes and the usual stuff like that)

Great gas mileage!

Cute, sporty look for its age.

Vinyl seats are not very durable... they started to crack from heat during the first year I had car and just got worse and worse.

Needed new engine after 4 years (11 years old at the time) and would have cost at least $1800 to fix... just not worth it to me and I got another car.

If thinking about purchasing a colt make sure it has LOW miles on it... will most likely need a new engine around 100,000 to 150,000 miles.

I overall recommend this car.

My Colt has 200,000 miles on it and still runs like a top. Makes me wonder how badly you treated it.
