I recently bought a 2007 Versa with 151k miles. I know that is high, but the car is super clean. Most of the other cars that were in my price range had similar miles, but were much older. I feel I got a great car. I'm thoroughly pleased with my new Versa. Should I be looking for anything to repair/replace? I'm getting a motor mount replaced tomorrow at the local Nissan dealer. They said everything else looked good.

I have 105K on my 2008 Versa SL no issues at all and love still getting 35 mpg on my highway trips. I have heard of two Versa's that were well over 200K already so they are really reliable.

you might want to consider a coolant flush before winter if your unsure of how long or strong the coolant is, and just do you normal oil changes and tire rotations and it will last you a long time.

Our three have about 120k, 95k (both 2007) and 84 k (2008). All are hatchbacks w/CVT and none have had problems beyond the warranty fuel pump problem, and only one had that. I was putting on 36k miles per year until my work location shut down last fall. I expected to be well over 200k by now on my first, but sold it to my son at 100k when he totaled his junker in a fender-bender. So now, mine's the "baby" in the family. All get about 30mpg in mixed driving, and all get scheduled maintenance, although not at a dealer.

Oil change and coolant flush were the first things I did. Even if they weren't needed, now I know when the last time they were done. I got my car out of the shop this morning and the rattle from behind the glovebox was in fact the motor mount. I'm about to go on a road trip to GA today and I cannot wait! I love the stereo. That rockford fosgate kicks some serious a$$

Bought mine with a little under 49k about 6 months ago. Now I've got just over 62k. Commuting from Baltimore to Washington, DC = about 120 mi a day. (4 days a week) Mixed city and highway miles. No problems yet!

I have 42000 miles on my 2010 Versa 1.8L. Have had 2 replacement engines installed. Have had two heater core installed. The car is in the dealership again with engine knock, leaking heater core, too much voltage in electrical system.
the engine knock is the same as before when the put the two new engines in it. The Nissan tech center doesn't know what to do about this car.

That sounds pretty good! One of these years I'll get a Versa up to 100k miles. I sold my first one to my son with 99k after he totaled his junker. I now have 93k on my second, but my daughter had somebody turn in front of her last week and now the middle Versa in our picture will no longer be driven. So I'm selling her mine and picking up a 2012 tomorrow. But since I changed jobs and am not driving 36k per year, it's going to be a slow climb back towards 100k on the new one. Probably a good thing, though, since 2012 is the last model year for the hatchback. Gotta make it last!

Is your daughter okay? A hit in the front usually isn't too bad for the driver, hope she's okay.
How was the V for crashworthiness?
Getting another cvt? Be sure to tell us about the new one! 08v
edit I now have 211600km on V

The only problem my daughter had was that she had her hand where the airbag came out, so it hurt her wrist. She'll find out on Monday if she needs surgery, but nothing was broken. The car, on the other hand, was totaled, but the other person's insurance gave her $2000 more than Blue Book value for it, I suspect to keep her from wanting to sue.

I had hoped to get at least a different color, but ended up with another silver SL HB with CVT. Four model years later, the only difference on the outside is a spoiler, fog lamps, a little change in sills and color changes in the grill. Inside is almost identical, with the cloth a bit different, and a different radio. No longer 6-CD, but they added an IPod port and controls.

Unfortunately, the radio itself isn't as good as in the '08, and the Bluetooth is a lot clumsier than before. It now works off of my phone's contact list, which is neat, but I can no longer just say "Call Home". Now it's several steps, but I guess I'll get used to it.

And I guess I should note that I have 360 miles on my '12 Versa. I'll never catch up!

90,000 mi 145,000 km.

2008 Versa S Hatch, 1.8l 6sp.

all new exhaust from the manifold back (rusted out, replaced with Eastman cat section, DC Sports catback), A/C compressor (leaky), strut mount (warranty), 1 set of tires, several headlight sets, 1 tail light. TPMS system needs maintenance next.

All told, around $1700 in maintenance, excluding fluid changes, for a cost of $0.018 per mile. Yea, I'm happy with it.

Just hit 170,000 miles on my 2008 Versa SL hatchback with CVT. I bought it used with 108,000 on it two years ago. The only work it's needed since I've had it was to get the exhaust flange welded and the cotterpin fix on the door handle after it came off in my hand. I change the oil every 5000 miles with Castrol GTX High Mileage oil and Fram filters.

2007 Versa SL with CVT has 360,000 miles.
The only thing I've had to replace is the a/c compressor.
