Not the original owner, but this car has a clean carfax and I've had it for the last 7 years. It was still in my family before that, though. Pretty low mileage, and I've had relatively few problems with it over the years. It does have some rust on the bottom (originally from New York state). I was told by a trusted mechanic that the timing belt will likely be the next thing to go, but that it isn't an immediate worry at all.
It's ready to sell immediately. There are a few disclosures, every car this old would have at least a few:
1. For a couple of months, the car would only start about half the time, even though the battery was only a few years old. Almost all of my trips were less than a mile, though, so I'm pretty sure that the battery just didn't get to build enough charge for a long time. It now starts just fine, and it hasn't failed to start in at least 6 months, but I still carry a portable battery in the trunk.
2. Water used to pool in the trunk of the car where the spare tire sits. I poked a hole with a nail in the bottom of the trunk so that the water could drain. This doesn't really negatively affect anything, just seems like something that should be disclosed.
3. I've had the engine shut off when going over a very large puddle a couple of times. It hasn't been a problem in over a year, even though I've gone over larger puddles than the ones that shut off the engine. When it did shut off, I was able to start it back up immediately.
That's everything that I can think of other than the normal wear and tear that you'd expect from a car this old. It's had relatively few problems over the years. I got the car around 2008 and it had around 32, 000 miles, so I drove it for a total of almost 40, 000 miles with no problems more serious than having to replace a battery. I got the car in high school, but now that I've graduated from college and gotten a job, I'd rather sell this one and get something a little bit nicer.
