1997 Honda Civic Dx With 142,000 km at $1000 is a good buy?

Is this a good deal I know it's old but is this a good deal if everything is good?

No

No. There's too many miles on it and unless it got an overhaul, it's probably not going to last much longer.

It also has very few amenities that makes life easier. The DX has no power windows or locks.

A car that is in good shape (have it checked by your own qualified mechanic before purchase) is worth that price. That is very low mileage for that year.

Have the timing belt and water pump replaced if it has not been done recently

Hi no it is not a good buy a bad buy actually as it is near to dying.

  • Would you purchase a 2004 Honda pilot for $6,000.000 that has 216,000 miles on it? I'm just browsing online looking at cars for sale and a lot of them have 200k or more miles on them and they want $4,000 or more. Why do people sale their cars for such a high price with a lot of miles on them? Its not just Hondas its all types of cars private and dealers as well
  • A 2008 Honda CBR600RR w/ 20,000 Miles. Good buy? They are asking $6,700 for it. Assuming that the pre-purchase inspection goes well obviously. I won't be selling the bike for any reason unless I'm forced to sell it. I would change the fairings, exhaust, get new tires and am willing to repair it if anything goes wrong that can be fixed. Any thoughts from you guys? All answers appreciated, but try to keep it serious. Thanks! Also, I went to check for a VIN number but they put the stock number instead… Worth checking it anyways?
  • 2008 Honda Fit with 66,000 miles on it for $5,000? Is this a good deal? I need to buy a new car and today I got an offer on a 2008 Honda Fit with 66,000 miles on it for $5,000. I'm a 19 year old girl and I know nothing about cars D: Are Honda Fits good cars? Should I buy this with so many miles already on it? Also, I like to travel. Will this car be safe to drive long distances?
  • 2012 Honda Civic needs a oil change at 10,000. But I want to drive more than 10,000 to save money? How many MORE miles can I drive while it's still safe for the engine to do so? The oil is synthetic blend. oil change every 5000 miles is very expensive and I'm a lower class. It would be better if I go over the limit.
