I have a 2010 Toyota Corolla. She's been my trusty steed for the last 14 years and is in good working order. I recognize she won't last forever, and if, god forbid (mostly for her) I get in an accident, I will need to get a new car. So what dumb cars do you drive, and what would you replace them with?

If you don't live in that one country where they get stolen easily, Hyundai I10 and I20 base models are the perfect dumb car

Absolutely nothing to go wrong; the most technological thing on them is a Bluetooth stereo, and the little 1.25L motor only needs an oil change every 20k kilometres to keep it sweet

The motors in us Hyundais are pretty notorious for not lasting long. Pretty much the opposite of a Toyota.

Actively in the process of replacing a 151k mile hyundai engine in my wife's kia soul.
