Used Chevrolet Cobalt for Sale in Richmond, VA

Have had this car for several years, and it has held up well for long distance drives. I used to commute about 87 miles each way on the highway (1½ hour drive), and never had any problem with the car. It has about 130,000 miles on it now with no attention other than regular tune-ups and service for a recall. It has been driven through hard rain, snow in the mountains I had to cross to get home, and even a major blizzard when my twin grandchildren decided to make a surprise appearance. The car is not especially quiet. The now 3 year old twins comment on how it makes more noise than their car, but it has not bothered me. Gas mileage was important with the long drives, and sometimes it has also been important to fit in tight spaces, both of which this car has been helpful for. For a small car, the trunk space is surprisingly large. I picked up food for our local soup kitchen each week, and could fit large donations of meat and baked goods into the car, more than could sometimes fit in our church freezer and refrigerator. My husband and I also have long legs (5'9' and 6' tall), and the car has surprising leg room for its size.

My 2008 Chevrolet Cobalt has gotten me from point A to point B for eight years with minimal issues. It's a little small, but that's perfect for someone who is only 5'2". There's plenty of trunk room to fit all of my never-ending shopping sprees. The car is great on gas, which leaves extra money in my pocket. And at 130,000 miles, it still runs great. I have had issues with a few minor things. There was a recall on the power steering that I did not know about and it suddenly went out while driving one day, making it nearly impossible for me to get home. Chevrolet replaced it free of charge, though. I've also had issues with the automatic locks, the tire pressure sensors, and the stereo.
