My 97 sedan has 130,000 on it and runs really great. I have replaced the timing belt, accessory belt, plug wires, spark plugs, battery, all bulbs and headlight assemblies. The cooling system has been flushed and refilled and the oil has been changed every 3,000 miles.
I have never had any trouble with it and I am hoping it will become one of the 71/2% 'Scorts which have gone over 300,000 miles. The gas mileage is very good. I get 40 mpg in town with the AC on and 46 mpg on the highway. The only reason it is this good is that I drive like an old man and rarely go over 50 mph. I'm probably a traffic hazard.
