Congrats on reaching the milestone! Just curious, but in those ten years, did anything need to be repaired or replaced?

Since you're curious about it, I thought I might mention that I just ticked over 77k and I've had to replace the steering rack, water pump and starter.

The water pump on these early models is known to leak. A few early models have also suffered from the starter grinding when cold issue I experienced. I believe the steering rack went early because of a minor collision my car was in early in its life. Luckily, it was still under warranty at the time, so it was replaced by the dealership at no cost to me.

The car has never left me stranded, always fired up and taken me wherever I've needed to go.

Water pumps are a fairly common failure on these. Sometimes the voltage regulator in the alternator packs up. I have heard of the odd early starter failure. Generally other failures seem to be an act of god. Mine had a bad door catch/lock replaced under warranty at 27,000 miles (i wasn't the owner at the time) but I've never heard of that failure on any other Yaris. My cousins Yaris had 2 coils go bad at 10 years/75,000 miles. Most Toyota engines in this generation burn oil so just check it every 1000 miles and top it up.

At 165,000 miles mine has had:
Waterpump
Exhaust
Battery
Alternator
Clutch
Belt x2 (i had a squeaky DAYCO belt i swapped for another one after my OEM one got replaced at 90K)

I also did a front end collision repair with the front end from a donor vehicle - bumper/rad support/radiator/assorted plastic bits.
