I'm going to assume we're talking about daily drivers and not special
cars here.

My daily driver is a 2000 dodge caravan.  Almost no metal left on the
body it's mostly duct tape I spray paint to match the colour so I don't
get pulled over.  Just has 191,000km on it still has WORKING A/C!!!!

Andrea's car is our "new one" 2012 Hyundai accent has I think 194,000
on it.  This one is unfortunaly starting to rust around the wheel wells
so won't look good much longer.

I keep them until they break down to the point it's cheaper to replace
then repair.

.... I know what's in the new martinis and how to make them but I won't.
