I am looking to buy a cheap, reliable used car that I can basically drive for 10 years with as few problems as possible, safety or maintenance-wise.

I don’t care about resale value since I intend to run the car into the ground. In fact, a high resale value might make the car too expensive to purchase as a used car.
What would you reccomend?

well, there’s no guarantee for 10 years,but why not buy a high mileage ex lease car,it would have had its regular services,and would be replaced for newer models.
Honda’ have a good reputation,or Vauxhall Astra

Pretty much anything japanese, like others are saying the Honda Civic is pretty good – I knew someone who had one and they got it 10 years old and carried on using it for another 10 years. In the end they drove it to a scrap yard, it drove fine but it was begining to rust in places.

for $4,000
look for
98 Acura CL, 98 Ford Mustang V6, 98 Honda Accord or Civic, 98 Nissan Frontier or Pathfinder, 98 Subaru Impreza or Legacy, 98 -00 Toyota Corolla or Echo 00
these are all reliable and will last longer than other cars in this price range.
for around $6k an Acura Integra 98-99 is a great car.
