My brother put 100k on his BMW 328is (E36) and the only things he really did besides change fluids/filters/tires/brakes) were suspension bushings, new struts, and change the cooling system (which took thirty minutes to do). Struts and bushings were stupid easy to change as well. He has 190k miles on it now and it still runs flawlessly. He also has surprisingly good gas mileage (30+ MPG).
How about a well sorted out W201 (190E) or a W124 (E320 / 300E) Mercedes? They are built like tanks, easy to work on and very reliable. You can get a decent one for 5K. Gas mileage will not be 30MPG though.
