btw, if you take good care of it, maintance and all, it will last a good time. i hit 200,000 miles a few weeks ago, and she still runs real good. one thing you want to make sure though, is make sure you check the heat. this may sound dumb, but you want to do this for head gasket purposes. keep the heat of for some time and make sure it blows HOT air, after worm up. also check the radiator resivoir for a greyish thick liquid, if you see it, then its no good.
if i were you, take it for a drive, and go to a gas station, get a mechanic to check it out, thats the best and quickest way to get an overall run of teh condition of the car.
