This is good tale about the need to take the car for a good drive.

Low miles in a 4 year old car is a bad sign, which means he only drove the car to the grocery store an back.

The car needs to be drive at highway speed for a couple of hours at least once a month, so that the engine reaches normal operating temp and all engine components are lubricated and cleaned.

Buy the car from your uncle, spend a $2000 for a head gasket job AND DRIVE THAT BABY ON THE HIGHWAY!
