Nissan is hardly the most dependable brand but compared - let's say - to ford is a marvel. In other words, for the right price it's not the worst case scenario.

If you can afford a car with less miles, go for it, you will end up saving money in the long run after the repairs you will most likely have to get at some point (pretty much any car with 120k will need something done).

Has any one got a 1.6 black or silver megane cabriolet for sale?


However, Japenese cars are known to last longer than American cars. However, Toyotas and Hondas have a much better reputation than Nissans.

What VW vehicle would you recommend for a beginning driver, age 16 and in Illinois.?


I have a friend that drives a Honda Civic with over 200k miles, and she has never had to take it in for any major repairs.

3>Could you estimate the price differential between the high end brands and low end brands?

It depends on how much you are paying for it. 120k is a lot of miles but then again it isn't a lot. Nissans are generally OKAY cars. Hondas and Acuras are known to go past 200k. Toyotas are awesome cars too. My first car was (88 corolla) 500 dollars and it had more than 200 miles and it lasted me til 220 (a little more than a year) because of an oil leak and it died on me this past year. This Altima is over 10 years old, so be prepared to spend some money on it. If you do buy it, make sure to get a full inspection done on it from somewhere like pepboys. Get new tires and new brakes if they have not already been replaced. This way you can know all what is really wrong because dealers do lie.
You should explore ALL of your options, check www.autotrader.com and price around. Remember its something you're going to be driving for awhile!

Is a used 2000-2001 LandRover Discovery a good car?

I would suggest you try to find something with lower miles because anything over 100k will need some ype of work done to it. Good luck in your search. Try www.carmax.com or www,automart.com
