I bought my first car! Any tips? (sh.itjust.works)

2008 Peugeot 107 (aka Toyota Aygo/Citreon C1). Around 70.5k miles.

I need to replace the wheel trims because they're peeling a bit but otherwise seems to be in decent condition. I bought a vaccuum, tread depth gauge, some gloves, leather cleaner, cloths, and antifreeze tester.

Anyone have any tips on how best to maintain it/take care of it?

Cheers :)

Speaking from experience: the gearbox is trash, don't get freaked out if you can't get it into reverse. Shift into a different gear and then try again. Other than that it's a great little car and has been super reliable. Happy driving!
