it's hard to get a reliable 10 year old car with low milage… harder every year until it will be impossible sooner than later
Toyota, Honda, or Mazda are good bets.
I just bought one today because of that. they're just getting older the longer I wait, if I don't need it right now, I might as well buy it so that it's not getting rustier being driven by someone else
