I bought my 2004 optra 2 years ago and thought i got a good deal on it. It had just had a bunch of work done so I planned on at least a year without and major problems. Within 3 months i replaced wheel bearing and all brakes. Two months later a tie rod end and sensor. Then 2 more months and had to replace, timing chain, have the heads done and basically redo the whole engine. You get what you pay for that is for sure! So don't think you are getting a great deal because of a low price because a low price is all they are worth. To answer my own question, No i would not ever buy this car again!
