Until I get out of college in a couple years I just wanted to know ways to keep it in great shape and help it hold its value. So far I have done the following.
Anything else I should do to keep it in good shape? The college I'm going to has an auto shop that will install things for free as long as I buy the parts. I don't have a whole lot to spend so please no suggestions like a new engine or anything along those lines.
Its a 2002 Cavalier with the standard non ecotec engine.
I'll definitely hold on to the original parts. The car itself is only at 60,524. I got it off an older person for $4k. I'm a very mellow driver so I don't drive it hard or over the speed limit.
preventative maintenance is the key as well as sen-sable driving.. avoid driving in foul weather & stop & go city driving. replace or repair part,s/problem,s as soon as possible & anticipate or follow the advice of a professional mechanic as far as future maintenance procedures & scheduling are concerned. the only other possible option that I can think of would be to put the car in climate controlled storage...on block,s.....good luck!
