Any old cars without any electronics are reliable. With electronics and
ECU etc.. cars are less reliable and can breakdown without much warnings.

It has to be the VW beetle. My family bought one in 1971 and sold it in
1992. It was still our daily transport til the day it was sold. It has no
radiator to worry about, no timing belt/chain (it uses gear driven
pushrods). In 20 years of owning the car, my father only replace parts
when they worn out. It does not even need to change air filter, it use oil
bath type. It was slow, noisy, uncomfortable and handles like a greased
pig. But it was tough as nail and RELIABLE.

Cars ARE reliable if you know how to take good care of it. Exp,it needs
other fluids besides petrol. It can get old and worn out too, so it needs
spare parts. And occasionally it needs a bath.
Some TLC is also required. Much like taking care of your own
gf/wife/lover!
