My bone stock '82 S http://homepage.mac.com/jolocho/gDriver/DSCN0111.JPG

it had ~80k on the odometer when I got it last year. It's driven daily, the only money I've dumped into it is for steering and suspension, and a new radiator + hoses.

It's proven reliable, but at around 100k the shutter valve gave out, so I plugged it. There's tiny smoke at startup but that's normal. I get average 19mpg in town.

While I'm sure you're looking for low miles on a car, too low is a bad thing if it's not driven regularly.
