Repair/Maintenance Costs after 100,000kms

I'm seriously considering purchasing a 2007 Honda Fit with about 95,000kms on it.
Does anyone have any experience or further info about what kind of repairs I can expect in the next year or 2? (I drive about 20,000/year)

I have the option of purchasing an additional 4 year bumper to bumper coverage but I want to know if it's worth it.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks!

This should really be in the 1st gen forum.

With any used car, its difficult to say. However, Honda does have above average reliability. What I look at when I buy a used car is to see if there are receipts or proof of service and PM's. Also, look for any items that may indicate that the car was abused (look for leaking main seals, worn tires, or anything that gives a clue about how the car was treated). Is the warranty HondaCare (I doubt it, unless it's CPO) or is it a "joe-blow" warrant?

Generally, you can't go wrong with a Honda...
