What to check on this one at 8,70,000 km
- Belt-driven engine, and at 870,000 km it is at or past the ~100,000 km timing-belt change. Ask for the bill, or budget for it: a snapped belt wrecks the engine.
- At 870,000 km the schedule has already called for: brake fluid, coolant, spark plugs, timing belt. Ask to see the bills.
- At about 16 years old, rubber and electrics matter as much as the engine: hoses, bushes, the AC compressor, and rust in the sills and boot floor.
