K i know this is a bit random but do you think that at 95k cars start to have problems, coz i've been argueing with my dad about buying a civic 1.3 thats at 95k and he says it will start to get expensive because things will keep going wrong .Do cars start to have serious mechanical problems at this age or will it be fine?? thanks for any help in advance

honda engines in general are very strong and well built. obviously rust etc can cost a lot to fix, but some cars with 20k could be just as rusty if theyve sat under water for a few years
