Used Chevrolet Spark for Sale in Abilene, TX

To start with, it was inexpensive & I had used the dealer before & they were within walking distance when my old car dropped dead. Probably could have gone somewhere else, but have owned a number of Chevy's (but not every car I owned) over the years & been happy with all of them. It gets good mileage (30-37 mpg depending on my driving) and has not caused me any real trouble in 2 years.

This car has great gas mileage. It usually takes less than 20 dollars to fill it up and I fill up about once every two weeks. The handling is great. I can make U-turns where most cars can't. The ride isn't that smooth, in a way it almost feels like driving a go-cart but I don't feel like that's a bad thing. One thing I don't like is the number of recall letters I've received for this vehicle (two or three). I haven't taken care of any of them. One time I tried to call my dealership's maintenance number and the line just rang forever so I tried calling the sales number. They answered right away but could only transfer me to maintenance, where it the line rang forever with no response. That's why I've never gotten the recalls taken care of. The coolant tank has a faulty part that breaks easily, it cost around 40 bucks to get it replaced. The car accelerates slowly even if you stomp down on the gas pedal. This makes it difficult to drive in heavy traffic if you need to quickly cut into a lane to avoid being stuck trying to exit a parking lot. But I assume the slow acceleration is similar to other 3 cylinder engine vehicles like the Chevy spark. I have a clean driving record and even for just liability it seems a little pricey to insure this vehicle I pay 90 dollars a month for liability. The registration costs almost 90 dollars as well which I don't understand, its a relatively small and safe vehicle, why all the high fees? At least the tires don't cost as much as other cars. I'm a little disappointed the car didn't come with Bluetooth, that would have been nice but other than that my car has been reliable. Its affordable around $8,000 so it took about 4 years for me to pay it off. It turns on when I ask it to and it takes me where I need to go so I'm happy with it.
