I don't buy junkers, but my primary car is typically bought 3-4 years old at about 33-40% of MSRP. My other car is a 22 year old Miata garage queen which is a spare and very reliable. If you are proactive about maint I think you can keep a car very reliable. I am manic about fluid changes, battery maint and have replace the CPS proactively. I have mulled about replacing the fuel pump (approaching 100K miles) but so many people have had the pump last to 160K miles I feel the odds are in my favor. If I found a mechanic with an oscilloscope I would definitely have it tested. If anyone has an oscilloscope in Toronto please let me know. Having a spare car has saved me a TON of money...
