ok wayne, lets make a deal. i'll give you advice if you let me co-share this thread with my car question.
advice: i have a chrysler (somehow everyone that i knew before buying it told me NOT to buy it cause it's shit) and i have driven it 138000 miles with no major problems. *knock on wood. no transmissions, no engine, no major overhauls needed.
i guess if you think this car was well taken care of, ie oil changes, transmission fluid changes, new this and that on schedule, and, you tend to keep babying it then it should last you well beyond 200000 miles. if it's cheap and in good shape buy it.
now, can i share this thread with a question?

I recon you can get a better car than that for the cash. where r u based?
- mogwai0
advise? you get what you pay for.
it may do 200,000 or it may not. just like a used honda, it really depends on how well the previous owner/owners took care of the thing. try to contact previous owner.

113000 is hell of a lot for a french car....if it were german it would be a different story. it should have had a major service [2 of them] and a new cam belt by now, AND a new clutch and exhaust. these are what will cost you if they havent already been done!
