gluequi - that's amazing. Out of curiosity, what did it cost to buy an Aveo with that many km on it?

That's right about the highest I've ever taken a car - about 8 years ago I sold an '89 Accord with that much on it, and the next owner went to about 450k before rust took it out. Original engine.

MetroMPG - We got it for $900 at a Hyundai Dealership. Someone traded it in to buy a new car. We spent about $1000 on it to fix it up to be road ready. The repairs were actually only $200 - $300 though. But we were kinda nooby so didn't know any better. We did a timing belt and water pump change the other day so I think we'll get a good bit more out of the engine. (fingers crossed).
