Thanks guys and gals. My prices are cheap. Why? Because Im here to help.

It would also help to know if you've done anything recently as well.

I have no idea what has been done. I bought the car the way it is a few months ago. When I bought it, it was already at 95k miles. No history with the car whatsoever and not even a manual with it. can you please give me a price range on how much the maintenance would cost? I would like everything that you would recommend to be done to make my stig last as long as possible. Thanks a lot guys and gals (if any ) for the help.

Better off just doing everything then since you don't know what was/wasn't done. That'd be my preferred choice since you could pick your fluids and you know what's in the car vs just going off what the previous owner chose, if they even changed it.

Typically when you buy a used car; its good practice to start fresh for your records by starting to replace all basic fluids - motor oil + filter, tranny, coolant, brake & diff. You can also use this opportunity to switch to synthetic, mixed or traditional oil. Plugs & a valve adjustment is something you might also want to look at.

those are good suggestions. i would definitely look into those too. full synthetic oil might be a nice change for stig.
