Not sure, I have been looking for a used Cavalier, drove one the other day that was very nice, tight, and ran great.
Then I looked at the miles, it had 217,000 and felt like it had half that.
I didnt buy it, I would rather have one with 150,000 or so but I was surprised.
Shows you what they will do when taken care of properly.

The only way to answer a question like that is cross your fingers. Cars do have a tendency to fail all alike when they are similar and have similar problems. That said, as long as you are doing your maintenance faithfully and using good quality stuff cars can last a long time without big problems. If you have not encountered any big deals so far, I would say thanks and consider myself lucky.

the car could run along time or fail tomorrow. depends on how it's taken care of. sounds like you got a good one though. good luck

a car will last forever if you treat it right, don't beat it and stay right on top of maintainence (oil changes, brakes, tranny, coolant) all of that stuff and your car will last forever. Be nice to your car and it will be nice to you.
