How long will it last

I am asking probably common question but am curious as to how much longer my car has left in her. I have a 2001 Honda Civic LX Coupe. I have maintained it very well over the years and has never been touched by anyone but a Honda Dealer (I have a friend that works there). I am sitting right around 69K miles and am curious as to what the average life length of a car like this is.

I know there are stories of Hondas' running 400K and a bunch over 200K, but I am wondering on average what a car like mine will have mile wise when all is said and done and it is time for a new car. Any help or insight would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Re: How long will it last

so long as you don't spend a lot of time doing hard accelerations, I would expect an easy 150-200k. I drove mine to 240k. Started having minor repairs regular around 140k. Silly stuff, alternator, cv boot, wheel cylinder, etc. I might add that it was 12 years old at this point too...

agreed. If you take car of it it will last you over 200k. I had a beater civic for the winter. I ran the oil dry a few times and it would not break down. It has 249k. Now my buddy delivers pizza in it
