I have a 1999 Honda Civic that I bought from my mother-in-law in 2005. Other than replacing the timing belt and water pump (because of age and recommendation of my mechanic) I've mostly done oil changes. I don't have power windows or anything fancy but there have been no electrical issues, engine problems, etc. Other than that, I haven't had to save money for auto repairs like most of my friends with used cars.

This has been the most reliable car I have ever owned. I inherited it from my grandfather in 2015, and since then I have only had to take it into the shop for minor problems, such as replacing the o2 valve and such. It gets fantastic gas mileage, about 45 highway and 35 city. It helps that I replace the oil every seven thousand miles or so and regularly rotate the tires. I would definitely buy this car again!
