 I bought the car used seven years ago with 45,000 miles on it; it now has nearly 209,000 and I have spent no money on it except for routine maintenance and service, gasoline, tires, and new CV joints at about 190,000 miles.  It still has the original clutch (it's a 5 speed manual).  It is the eighth Nissan that I have owned.  All have been great!
