For these cars it is WAY cheaper to maintain (usually) then to buy a new car in the same class, what at $30K Plus. Unless you loose an engine, etc. But even still. $3k for an engine replacement is still way less.
There is always a point that you might loose confidence in the car (too high a change of being stranded), but still..... a very nice car for the price.
Have purchased cars for kids at $3k or less and with an alternator here and a fuel pump there. Definitely if you can turn the wrench, very cost effective.
