    Approximately 1yr ago I replaced the HV battery when mileage was about 196k miles. Engine is running great and has had maintenance been done on regular basis. Body is solid with zero rust and other than a couple of small cosmetic dents it is great! Seat covers from day one, so Interior is great shape. Currently the brakes could use new pads and front rotors, but good remaining life left on all tires.

    In May of last year the transaxle failed and during the past 6 months have replaced it with another that had 68k miles. After completing the swap of transaxle my mini-VCI reported that I have P0A78 and P0AA6 codes being displayed. So I'm assuming that the replacement transaxle had some issues that were undeclared when I purchased it. I still have the original transaxle which also is included with vehicle.

    The replacement high voltage battery was gotten from GreenTech Auto (greentecauto.com) it was the rebuilt battery with remanufactured 2nd gen cells. It originally ran $1500 ($1200 battery + $300 shipping) and only has about 10k miles on it, batteries typically have 10yr shelf life so there still is about 9yrs remaining.

    Location of vehicle is in WV, basically right where PA/MD/WV all come together, a small town called Terra Alta.

    Hate to part with it, but I need the garage space and perfectly honest swapping out transaxle has physically taken more out of me than expected, Not sure if I have it in me to put in another transaxle. With replacement, I'm sure that you could easily get another 100-200k miles out of it, as owning it has been a pleasure.

    Photos are available upon request, and price is negotiable. Price is $1500 or make offer.
