Hello everyone, a couple weeks ago I bought a 2002 Land Cruiser. Its in pretty good mechanical shape, cosmetically not the best, has dings and scratches all over.
It has 208k miles on it and I spent 13k plus 1k to register, title, tax it in my name so 14k total. My whole family though I was nuts for spending that much on a high mileage car but I told them "its a land cruiser it will run forever" lol
My question is this, it had its timing belt replaced at 125k miles and it needs a new ac compressor. I was quoted by a local shop that only works on Japanese cars, $1,300 for the timing belts and $1,200 for the ac compressor. Is this accurate? Also is it ok to wait another 20k miles before I have the belt replaced?
Thanks
