2005 with 102,000 miles (I bought it in 2008 around 45k)
I've put a lot of miles on it for work, but I'm hoping that will ease up a bit in the future. Since it is paid off, I'd like to get to the 150k mark or so before I trade it in.

2001 Ford Escape, 101,000. I took delivery in Nov 2000 and due to circumstances put 1000 miles on it the first week It was the first model year but I decided to take a chance on Ford/Mazda getting the engineering right & I've been very happy with the vehicle. It's required only 1 visit to the shop beyond regular maintenance. It's a little noisy on the freeway, but I love to sit up high. It's great to take car camping and it parallel parks on a dime. I used to drive it to work daily (33 mile round trip), but the past couple years I've been busing it. Bus saves me a ton of money on gas and parking. I hope I get another 100k miles out of it. It has a V6 and gets about 20 miles/gallon.

2007 Toyota Rav4 with 43k, 2008 Toyota Camry with 54k. We'll probably run both of them until we have 10 years or around 125k on them. My 17-year old son drives our 1998 Lumina with almost 65k. We pay the insurance and he pays for his own gas. It will get passed down to my daughter when he goes to college. We'll probably have it for at least another five years or more.
Just picked up a 1999 Honda Civic with 95k miles on it today for my 19-year old college son. He's paying for the car, taxes, title, gas, etc. himself. I would guess he'd keep it for 3-4 years until he's got the money to get himself something nicer.

I have 99,and 03 chevy tracker both 120k miles. auto, air , 4 cylinder. 4 x 4 also. very dependable maintenance free to date.
Because of the 4 x 4 and hills here I only get 17 mpg city and 20 highway. But commute is only 5 miles a day for both.
I pay 700 a year for insurance liability 100/300.
I will have these for several more years at least.

2008 Corolla about to hit 14,000 miles. Bought new in Dec '07. My goal was to pay it off before it hit 15,000 miles, but that isn't looking like it's going to happen. Assuming there's no massive technological change and assuming that I don't have a nutter moment at the Fiat dealership for the cinque cento, I'll probably have this car for at least a dozen more years. Had the last one for 14 years and I drove a lot more back then.

2004 Civic 80,000 miles 2008 Tacoma 15,000 miles
We agreed to replace our cars no more often than every 10 years and we tried to space out the vehicles 5 years so that every 5 years we were purchasing a new vehicle. We didn't quite get the spacing right, and now we are looking into selling the Tacoma if we stay in Germany much longer. It doesn't do well in the winters here because it isn't 4WD.

Wow, you don't put many miles on your vehicle.
I bought my WRX in fall 2004 with just over 20,000 miles on it and I have about 115,000 miles on it now. Soooo, that's about 95,000 miles I've put on it over 6.5 years so about 15,000 miles a year.
I'm not quite sure where I all go and do to put that many miles on.

2009 Nissan Versa with 48,000kms on it (~30,000 miles)...It only had 9,000kms (~5,600 miles) when we bought it less than a year ago, but Hubby drives around all day visiting clients, so the mileage adds up very quickly.

1996 Volvo 850 - 182k. Lots of repairs at the moment (well, some standard like brakes/rotors and timing belt) but hopefully once we get over this hump, we will be good for a couple more years. Most of the parts should be new by then, so it will be like driving a new car! Bought in 2005 with 75k. 2001 Toyota Tundra - 110k and usually only driven on weekends now. 2004? Dodge Neon - approximately 110k - DH's car and it's a standard so I never drive it. My mom's 1998 Volvo S70 has 314k.

My wonderful DH's 2002 Explorer has 80,000 miles ~ and I think that might be about average for a 9-year-old vehicle.
I have the identical model and year, and my odometer is about 101,500. 80,000 is very low mileage for a 2002, as is the mileage I have, though I have owned mine since 2005. I put about 9500 per year on it, the bulk, over 95% is driving back and forth to my shore place in the summer months.

1999 Camry, 162k. Had it almost 3 years, bought it with 120k on it. It's a great car, only major repairs so far was brake job last month, $300. Hoping to run this thing into the ground, although after the wedding I'm starting a car-fund again to be prepared in case it dies suddenly. I want a RAV4 next

Our 2001 Honda has 60k on it. I bought it new - I'm thinking I will have it a long, long time.
The 2001 Jeep has 100k on it. We bought this used, and I'm ready to move onto something more useful.
