Dependable cheap transportation

My Sonata was eight years old at the time of purchase. It had 70,000 miles at the time and I've put on 3,000 so far. Basically it is what it is. Seems to run and drive just fine with minimal attention needed other than regular maintenance. Could possibly have the cheapest plastic ever put on a car though. Inner fender wells are cracking away. Some interior pieces are broken. Three trim pieces on the body are coming loose. It would be four, but former owner stuck a bolt in one. Very reliable and that's what matters most. I'm sure I'll drive it into the ground one piece at a time.
