The car has about 150K miles and has been a great car for me until it recently blew the plastic pipe behind the motor while I was out of town. I have fixed the broken pipe but since I resemble it, the car is not running right. I think it may have a bad head gasket or maybe something easier. All that I know is I do not feel like fixing it and prefer to use this as an excuse to get a 6 cylinder BMW. What do you think it is worth and is anyone interested in the car? Overall I am in no great rush. | | | 01-06-2011, 11:29 PM | #2 | Member Join Date: Jan 2011 Location: seattle Posts: 45 | i am intersted, you can text me at 407-927-1167 as i havent figured out how to pm on here yet, or you can do that too. | | | 01-07-2011, 02:12 AM | #3 | Senior Member Join Date: Aug 2008 Location: Auburn, Alabama Posts: 206 | Clean interior!

Attached below are all the service records I have for the car minus the work that I most recently did in fixing the plastic pipe that broke on the backside of the engine. Also, I started going longer intervals on the oil changes since they started happening more frequently from the 200 highway mile round trip I have for work. I found the oil to still have good color to it even though I was going slightly longer then I usually would.
