That depends on what is now considered an antique...

My daily driver is a 2000 Toyota 4Runner, with about 225,000 miles on it. It's still purring like a kitten. ;)

My wife, who doesn't drive much, has a 1980 Toyota Corolla sitting in the driveway. That did need an engine rebuild about 8 years ago. She loves that car. :)

I stick with a vehicle until it really starts to cost more money to operate than it's worth.
