Just what I would call routine maintenance. Pads and rotors, ball joints,
replaced the sunvisors (died from floppy ear syndrome), shocks, tires and wheels of course. An opti or two (tune-up). Otherwise just drive the living crap out of it. Starts every time right away, uses no fluids and the only things it burns are the rear tires.
