Hence totally not losing any money if you regret later. Spare parts are 90s dinosaur simple parts which has OEM version everywhere Many upcoming 2016 and later cars also qualify. Many hybrids are at 2.5k PARF. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many are still running reliably into their 15th years, or more! Avoid the later CVT versions. Some specimens may be “iffy” after 10 years. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
