05 Aveo, my first small Chevy

[IMPALADAKID]

Hi guys. I just purchased my first Aveo. It is a 05 5 speed hatchback with 167k on it (All highway) from the original owner. I actually worked at the dealership at the time it was sold. It seems like a good car, I actually purchased it to keep from driving my 2014 silverado in the the winter. Car seems very solid except for a light front end damage where the guy slid down his driveway a couple years back, and over into a gully on the other side of his road. It took out the hood, headlamp, and drivers fender. He replaced the fender, and headlamp, but the hood still looks like Elvis talking. LOL
Plans include giving it it's fourth timing belt since it is coming up on the milage for that, a new valve cover gasket since that is almost nonexistent, a tune up, air filter, fuel filter, and drive it.

Awesome! Welcome to the Forum and best of luck with it!

Thanks. I really like it. Since it was a one owner car, it was mechanically sound. Since the milage is all highway, the clutch also has a 167k on it. This is the only thing that worries me, but it is only to get me back and fourth to work which is a 3.8 mile round trip 5 days a week.

Replaced the hood over the weekend. Now to get it painted.
