I've been looking for a cheap vehicle that needs some work to use for a DD, and I came across an 89 Caravan with a 2.5 4cyl and 3 speed auto with only 85k. It has a solid body, but they say it needs engine and brake work. I do know that the 2.2s and 2.5s have head gasket issues as I have worked on them before. Any other known issues with older Caravans? What kind of fuel mileage is normal for one of these? Finding parts shouldn't be a problem because there are several U-Pull-It junkyards close to where I live. I'm going to email the owner to find out what kind of engine problems it has.
