hey guys! just need your advice guys on my problem. my uncle's Toyota Atlis 1.6J which was purchased last 2003 was overhauled two months ago because the car became "dead" - while driving, biglang namatay na lang. i think it is because he never brought the car into any maintenance even simple tune-up, PMS or change oil. So, the car was brought into toyota casa and it was overhauled. the overall cost went as high as 79K.

now, my dad is planning to buy it because my uncle cant anymore pay the financing scheme. the mileage is 45K and it is driven often going to Bulacan. my problem is...is it advisable to buy this car? what would be the future problems if an engine was already overhauled? or is it considered that the engine is as good as a new engine?

hop you can advice me on this problem. thanks a lot guys!
