I bought a weird little 2000 Honda Insight in 2019 for $300. I sold the hybrid battery for $700. My annual oil change is about $10. I had to replace the brakes and rusted brake lines. I replaced the radiator since the fins were badly corroded. And one wheel bearing. I don't remember any other repairs. 60-100 MPG, depending on how I drive it. Over 200k miles on it. Parts availability isn't great.

But to directly answer your title question; Toyota Corolla!
