Six years. My second car, a Sierra was bought in 1993. I ran it for 3 yrs, then bought myself a mk2 Cavalier SRi. The Sierra sat doing nothing for the next year or so, then SWMBO took it on, and ran it for another 2 years. Sold it to a mate in 1999 for £150 less than I'd paid for it six years (and 80,000 miles) previously! Cheap motoring! :-)

Buy newish and keep until uneconomic. BX bought in 1993 @ 2YO and scrapped in 2005. Leader in current fleet is a 2000 Xantia 110HDi now relegated to station hack and subbing for a 2005 Berlingo as family transport. No current plans to change.

Is that with 'daily' driving, SP?

I've had my Mondeo estate since Nov '97 - first as my company car, then I bought it from the company. I suspect that it will be departing in June, though, when its MoT is due. It's rusting around the rear wheel arches now.

Waino no, not a daily driver, but it has been to work and most other places. As I seem to attract the rain, sometimes far from dry miles!
