scouk Posted October 13, 2011 Share Posted October 13, 2011 Simple really.. Just wondering how long people have kept the same car.. For me 5 years so far and no intentions of giving it up.. Anyone over 15 years? Link to comment
gus the bus Posted October 13, 2011 Share Posted October 13, 2011 I've had eleven since 1997 does that count Had the RA now for 4 years which is a miracle by my standards and have no intention of changing it Link to comment

micra_wrc Posted October 13, 2011 Share Posted October 13, 2011 I've had the RA for 5 and a half years was close to selling her last year, but that thought went out my head pretty quickly when I figured out I wouldn't be happy driving any other car btw, i love this smiley! Link to comment
Vimmy Posted October 13, 2011 Share Posted October 13, 2011 I've had my MY98 Classic wagon between 5 and 6 years now, still going strong - unlike its owner Link to comment
frenchy Posted October 13, 2011 Share Posted October 13, 2011 I had my Classic 6 years 10 months and 12 days before I sold her And I've had the Blob 4 months and 19 days Link to comment
Pistolpete Posted October 13, 2011 Share Posted October 13, 2011 err.. had mine 2 weeks Link to comment
kingboyk Posted October 13, 2011 Share Posted October 13, 2011 My brother just sold me his 03 blob eye STI which he had from new, so 8 years (53k). To buy that he traded in a Turbo 2000 which he'd had for a year or 2. Pretty dedicated but has had to give it up as he needed a family car - could have got a Forester but there we go! PS Had a farmer admiring the car today "Subarus - the best cars in the world!" he told me. Apparently they don't make the pickup trucks any more?! Link to comment
Midnight21 Posted October 13, 2011 Share Posted October 13, 2011 I had my Classic 6 years 10 months and 12 days before I sold her And I've had the Blob 4 months and 19 days and counting lol Link to comment

bmwhere? Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 The longest I've kept a car was my 03MY for 5 years. Before that, I had an RB5 for 4 years and a 98 MY for 1 year. I've now had the 08MY for 3 1/2 years, so in total I've been driving Impreza Turbo's for 13 1/2 years Link to comment

scouk Posted October 20, 2011 Author Share Posted October 20, 2011 (edited) Looks like I'm the winner at the moment 11 years and 4months Nice one! You've broken the 10 year mark Looks like a well looked after machine! Saving up for the BRZ *drool* ... Any advance on 11.3333333333 years? Edited October 20, 2011 by ScoUK Link to comment
