I find it admirable that you’ve gotten such use out of one car, over time. I kind of find it wasteful in all sorts of ways when people buy a new car every couple of years… Personally, I think there are better ways to spend my money than on having a new car. And I can’t even imagine having car payments – that seems like a drag to me. haha.
I drive a 1991 Subaru with 155,000+ miles on it, and it’s been a pretty good car since I bought it over 2-1/2 years ago. When it finally kicks it (at, I’m hoping, past 300,000 miles), I’ll buy another decade old Subaru. If I did have lots of money to throw around (ie: could afford to buy a new car – cash outright – no car payments) – I would just drive it until it’s geriatric end anyway.
Mind you, I’m the kind of person who “downgrades” clothes in my wardrobe. I wear something until it’s unpresentable in public… then I might wear it at home for leisure… then I would wear it for housework & get-dirty-work… and by that point it’s ready to be turned into rags, usually. And I should also add this also goes for articles of clothing I’ve bought at thrift shops. hahaha!!!
huh. im not big on imports but that audi’s not a bad car. got a chance to drive one a while back. corners like its on rails, goes like stink. fun wheels that.
The boyfriend has a Mini Cooper. Now THAT’S some fun. And surprisingly inexpensive for a brand new car.
