All three cars are very reliable and they are like ants, you can find them everywhere.
Within 50 miles of her hometown there was exactly 1 Corolla that showed up in the search (under $6k, under 100k miles) and it had unrepaired crash damage.
Dang, I'd say you came out pretty good on that!
Don't limit the mileage to 100,000 on the Corollas. I bought my 2003 Corolla for $4,500 when it had 147,000 miles on it. A deer totaled it at 250,000 miles and nothing went wrong with it during that time. The insurance company gave me $3,700 for the wrecked car......it cost me $800 to drive 103,000 miles! They are not the fastest, quietest, most comfortable, or most modern vehicles, but they do fire over every time you turn the key.
