However, if you don't do at least the basic repair items yourself, it can quickly become uneconomical to keep an old car running (especially if you are not getting good value from the services of your selected mechanic). At some point it does not make financial sense to keep dumping money into a high mileage K car as a daily driver with a growing list of problems when there are much better alternatives (a lower mileage K car that is not worn out or an equivalent K-car derivative from the 90's (like a Spirit/Acclaim/New Yorker - which are widely still available in great condition with low mileage for very reasonable prices.)
