Smile 2000S at great car

I bought my 2000S with 21,300 miles on it. 10,000 miles later, no problems. 30K service and rear tires coming up this Fall.

Go for it!

Regards,

Mr. Mike

Great car

I bought my 99 built 00 acouple of years ago and it had 27K on it and now has 68K on it & have had very little problems. Only thing I had was engine hunting at idle due to carbon build up in the throttle body, which was easily fixed.

Also had to repace rear plastic window due to craking, but aside from that just normal servicing. It's a dream to drive and I love it everyday as it's my daily driver.

Garage
I bought my 00S in Feb 05 with 60,0xx miles on it. Now I've got 106,xxx. I've gone through several sets of tires, a couple of alignments, two years of Auto-X, oil changes every 7500 miles. As far as things needing to be done, the biggest has been replacing the 4 CV boots. It really wasn't that bad of a job. For the fun stuff, I've swapped the stock struts for coilovers, added headers and a cold air intake with an AEM dri-flo filter, modified the cats for better flow, and opened up the muffler for a bit more sound and flow. The car is one of the best purchases I've ever made.
