My wife and I have been having a discussion and I'm turning to all of you for your advice. My 94 940 wagon is at 136k miles. I've had it four years and here is what I've done to it:
- timing belt at 100k
- new radiator at 100k
- new belts and hoses at 100k
- all fluids changed at 85k
- new motor mounts at 130k
- new tires at 120k, yokohama avids
- tires precision balanced
- new tie rod ends last year
- new cat, new exhaust
- new brake pads a while back
- air conditioning compressor

What it needs:
- strut inserts and shocks - cost $680, for bilsteins
- transmission mounts - $150
- seals at timing belt are seeping. I figure I can wait a year on this and do the timing belt closer to 150k. Do you agree?

My thought is that, once I do the struts, shocks, tranny mounts and timing belt it won't need much until the timing belt at 200k

In the last 4 years all the maintenance above has cost me $4700 and I've put 54000 miles on the car. Cost per mile, including depreciation and scheduled maintenance has be 14.4 cents/mile. Bought the car at 86k for $6800 with solid maintenance records (all by the dealer).

Guess I'm on the fence because I'm looking at about another $1000 to spend on a car thats probably worth about $3500 on the market. Do you agree?

What would you do?
