We don't know what it will cost to repair this one until a quality second opinion is obtained. If the engine is severely damaged (I suspect that's likely), I agree with you. Supposedly this car has been very well maintained for it's whole life. Aside from the engine, "clapped out" seems unlikely. From what I've seen on this forum, these cars can have a lot of life left in them at 200K. Less valuable, of course.

I told the owner what RMG would pay for the car based on the description I gave them of the car. Hopefully the owner will take the car there for a chance at an affordable and practical repair. I have no idea what he thinks of $2,500-3,000, but he's probably in a state of shock. Tentatively he already has that offer. I'm interested in helping him with some decent advise, not taking pictures to match the offer he already has.
