Extremely good buy for the price and make your ownership experience trouble free by changing every single fluid(except battery water) in the car every two years come what may and the engine oil every 5000km with ordinary mineral oil( Total is what I use in my GTX). If you go for synthetic change it at 10000km or 1 year whichever comes first what ever advice your friends give you that it can run more on synthetics. Its a small price to pay for complete peace of mind.

With the above rules kept diligently the only part that's been changed in my June 2003 GTX is a wiper blade of the driver side in 49500km. Its low mileage car because I have 2 cars and use this for the highways usually.
