With such a lightweight car, the rear shoes would normally be expected to last a long time. These had done 85k miles and were a little less than half worn. On this basis, you might expect shoes to last 160-200,000 miles but as can be seen, issues other than simple friction material wear can cause replacement.
Unlike disc brakes, the dust in drum brakes is trapped inside the drum. There was a lot of dust and on this basis I would suggest that the drums are removed for a clean at least once a decade or every 75-100,000 miles.
