Had my '94 Civic for 3 years of dd service. Chassis well over 350k before I bought it. Road salt (thanks MNDOT) finally did it in.

My Escort was totaled at 280,000 Miles, my Cavalier was traded in at 216,000 Miles and the winner though not a small car was my Malibu with 415,000 when it was crashed and disintegrated because it was so rusty.
1991 Escort with 405,000 miles and still going.
311,000 on a 1986 Escort EXP before I sold it and saw it still on the road for at least 8 years.
Oldest Brother put 110,000 on a MGTC.

Small? What about SUV small? The 87 4Runner is about as small as a utility vehicle ever got. Mines got 450,000.
I put about 1,500 miles on my Mini this past spring. Not very many miles, but it is a small car. I currently have 4 cars and none have over 100k miles on the odometer. The Miata has the most at something around 68k after having it for 10 years.
210000 on a 2001 corolla that I still own. has been relegated to winter beater status but only because I can't drive the M5 enough. Still looks and drives excellent.
Years ago I put over 167K miles on a Chevrolet Sprint Turbo. Was still running great when I sold it.
Between my wife and I we put 300K on a 90 Celica GT. My wife got it before we were married with something like 50K on it and it was still running well when we sold it.

Old guy I know has one of these and still drives it to this day. I haven't inquired about the mileage recently and I know he drops new rings and seals in it ever 100k because "it's just so darn easy to do, engine doesn't even have to come out for it". I know in high school it had 400k on it because I gave him a hand putting rings in, in exchange for some flight time in his hand built J-3 Cub. That was 18 years ago.

Nice. Didn't know we had some high mileage 500s here. My turbo is at 46k.
