One plug in 200000miles sounds good But to get it in
perspective...
How long did it take to change it? I cant believe it was
less than several hours of struggling with plastic covers
etc just to see it :o)

I now believe with my manual over ride switch my days of
dead  GPs are at an end.
I As I've mentioned to someone its not the mileage  its the
number of cycles. These 1 1/2mile trips to school equate to
a  lot of miles for the long distance  driver :o)

So you have the luxury drive  for 20 or  30 thousand
dollars;  but all the worry of someone dinking it whilst my
Quantum  cant be scratched (noticably ;o)  wont be stolen;
very economic and very green if you take ito consideration
its lifespan. Cost only £100 (less than 1/100th of yours)
sails through road tests; carrys wood brick cement rubbish
etc and it's rusty [oops] and the roof rack is the strongest
I've seen on a car.... Yawn.... {8OD}
Miser
