Good Little Car

I got the Sentra back yesterday, having spent at the top range of what I expected it to need to fix the exhaust and pass inspection.  It has completely new exhaust pipe and muffler.  It also needed a tune-up, which seems funny given its 30 MPG performance (at least until the weather cooled; haven’t had a chance to measure it lately), so it has new plugs, wires, cap and rotor.  Plus wipers and oil change, for which it was thousands of miles overdue.

All for only two hours labor.  Which apparently is more what the guy decided to charge than what it really took, kind of like I’ll often do if I think a lower amount is a more appropriate price for the work.

I figure even another 4 - 6 months use of the car is worth what I spent.  It still needs brakes, but I already bought the parts and just have to have my brother put them in, which I was waiting until this was taken car of to do.
