BMW M3 Evo convertible - brought new in 98', 65K miles later, lives in the garage most of the year. Its my baby and will be my son's first car ( in 16 years time :-) )

Toyota Supra Turbo - brought by my father new in 90', brother took over the car in 2000, and still drives it. 200K, still pulls like a train.

Must take quite a lot of legwork though? What if an 8cyl engine explodes? Surely the car's write-off then?

I do fancy an old SL for weekends away.

 

14 years ownership of Renault 5 Turbo 2 as per my Username/Avatar (Sept 1994 - Nov 2008). Taxed and on the road throughout this time, but it had still only covered a genuine 25,000 miles by the time I sold it.

Nothing I've owned drew so much public attention and put such a big smile on my face and that includes 22B, WRX, Integrale and Renault GTA Turbo.

 

still have 2nd car I ever bought in 1986, so 23 odd years

1964 Mini Cooper S

 

Current Astra - almost four years from new.

My mk2 Golf GTI was mine for 2 years but was "passed down" from Mum who had it for 10 years.

 

3yrs and 2 months.... and counting

Although I am looking to change at the moment

Classic 2L turbo, just over 9 years with 35k, been sat in the garage for 6 months as I couldn't bear selling it for nothing.
Even changed the oil last Saturday, not talking to it yet though

 

10 years, BMW E28 M535i 1987 see my garage, loved it to bits, had major motorway meltdown so took the oppertunity to go for something else, regretted it until the day i got my Scoob

 

12 months then sell them on at a profit

 

12 years and counting



Although she is currently looking a little sorry for herself, having spent the last four years sat on the drive waiting for a pair of sills

 

Yeah, it can be a pain travelling for ebay bangers! I don't do it so much these days.

If they break they get binned. I must say that I've owned 50-70 old smokers (mainly mercs) and apart from a blown fuse and an exhaust falling off in Glasgow (400 miles still to go!), I have never been let down.

 

Longest I've owned one is 2years for a B6-series A4. Tend to keep cars for about a year generally.
