I can understand the belt needing to be replaced but not the rest for so few miles.
An 01 domestic or Japanese brand is well within the range of years we can still work on. European brands are status symbols but crazy expensive to get repaired and many times they require dealers to the work because not many others have the expensive specialty tools. After 2010 they started getting computer crazy with all kinds of complicated systems on some cars.
I consider tires and fluid changes to be routine wear items anyone (smaller shops and owners) should be able to take care of.
Is this car special to you as a weekend rambler? Just wondering why so few miles for the year... I have a 90’s Mustang GT w/105k miles I use as my fun car. My daily driver is an 01 Toyota. Being retired I don’t rack up the 150-500 commuter miles a week I used to.
My daily commute to work and back was only 20 miles. The car was only 8 months old when I was retired by my employer in 12/2001. ...For the next 5 years only trips to play golf at my CC and run local errands would add ~120 miles/wk.
I stopped the CC membership in 2007, so local errands about 3 times a week are only ~15 miles/wk. ...For the past 12 years, I’ve averaged less than 1000 miles/yr. I don’t drive at night and avoid all freeways. ...I’m 77.
