All of that is true but as the years role on more and more of these cars will show problems with the engines.

Damn shame. Most modern cars suffer in the same way. They get to a point of being too expensive to fix really quickly.

If you can find a good one then you have a great daily that will last for more than 10 years.
You can DIY them and they really are good cars. The engine issues real or not have realy hurt the reputation of this car and that's everything to a prospective buyer on a tight budget.
