I agree with the others. If the guy has a lead foot and will beat on the car he is probably asking for trouble. If he plays with it on occasion and takes care of it he will be fine.

Today's cars are pretty dang good, if you take care of them. I remember doing valve jobs on Chevy 396 engines at 60K miles. It was pretty common. Now days a valve job is done at 250K along with a rebuild. By then the rest of the car is gone so it really doesn't matter. My two daughters drove a V6 Maxima that had over 200K miles all through high school and beyond until the tranny gave up. The engine was still fine.
