"A great, inexpensive, reliable car"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Transmission totally died at 152000ks.

Heater core died shortly thereafter, and defective heater core was installed to replace it. It was again replaced.

The speedometer is very noisy, I have to guess at my speed (eg am I going 50 or 75? It jumps around like a Chevy on a dirt road).

I hate the hubcaps.

General comments?

This is a fantastic car. Everything else replaced was normal maintenance (eg tires, brakes, bumpers)

The paint lasted 17 years and still looked great when painted. Very cheap on gas if you hardly press the pedal, and the A/C is very durable. Great car, would recommend it to anyone.
