Just hit 46k on my 2004 Aveo.
2004 Aveo beater car
2005 Aveo LT. 5-speed beater car (DOA)
i'm at 153k 2010 right now, had new suspension put in at 148k and now dealing with either oil cooler leak or head gasket issue.
I'm at 185k with my 06 hatchback. I've driven almost 60k miles in 2 years since I've owned it and I drive pretty rough, hence my account name.... Needs new front exhaust pipe and manifold, and probably a new cat. Plus little things. The parts will be worth more than the car's worth, but I think the car would last maybe another 30-50k miles. In that respect, I think it would be worth it if it will last. I do almost all the repairs and maintenance by myself. Great car if you want to learn how to work on cars, because parts are fairly cheap!
I'm trying to milk it to over 200k miles by 2019.

I had 249,000+ miles (and i never replaced nothing on the car besides normal maintenance stuff like oil) before tire came apart and destroyed the wiring system. I would not replace it at $1000 for the wiring system plus god now what labor would be. Loved that car
I'm at 272,XXX miles and I am trying to get to 300,000. Just replaced the heater core hose for the 3rd time.... I was driving and the engine started getting warm. Pulled over and the hose had a hole in it and was leaking antifreeze. I decided to do this 3rd timing belt change early and on my own 2 months ago and it went pretty good........ until last week.......I will post the rest of the story of it not starting in another thread.........great car.....still lots of life left in her.......
My 04 Aveo made 200,000 today, the only thing I have done to it is replace the brakes and rotors a few times and replace the bearings front and rear as well as lower ball joints and tie rod ends, oh yes, and I am getting ready to replace the timing belt and serpentine belt for the second time. Great little car! I did replace the radiator because something popped up from underneath the car and damaged the radiator, not because it went bad.
I have 190k on it
167,000 miles on my 2008 Aveo...just had timing belt,water pump ,tensioners replaced..runs like a champ

155k km on mine, a 2014. I was worried about how long would it last, but I'm feeling a lot more confident now.
I got all of you beat......My 2004 Aveo has has 262,670 on it.
