Can we not be cluttering up this thread with rubbish rusty 10+ year old cars please guys.

 

[[TW]Fox]

This is now the oldest car I have ever owned, yes even the crap £1200 Citroen I first bought was newer:

This is the inside:

This is its birthplace:

This is it near the top of Umbrail Pass, the other side of Stelvio:

I still like the stupid thing far too much which is why 7 years on I still have it

 

[geekman]

How many miles has your car done now Fox?

 

[[TW]Fox]

200,000

 

[geekman]

200,000

I thought mine was good for 135k but that's incredible. Looks like a 50k mile car - even your drivers seat doesn't look that worn?

 

[Freefaller]

Here's my 70k mile, Japcrap. It's petrol. It's blue. It's not a turbo. It's a V6, 3.5L, RWD and pushing out around 283bhp. And I love it.



What's not to like? Well the fuel economy I suppose...



Not bad paint work for such an old girl. It could be black I guess?



Yup. It's a Nissan, not a premium German brand.



The joy centre - needs a bit of a clean. Big engine block - such a waste of space. :/

You obviously haven't seen the dimple in the back seat, surprised the car hadn't been written off.

There isn't one, it's just where the seatbelt buckle sits

200 thousand miles. And it looks like that.

Just goes to show that if you actually look after something, it'll last, contrary to society's wasteful "oh it's 5 years old now and done 70k, it's knackered" attitude.

It belongs in BMW's equivalent of Mercedes Benz World if you ever do get rid of it.

Replaced the bench didn't you I managed to put a dent in my rear bench after slinging a complete rear axle in there, it never came out, at all.

 

[peterattheboro]

Think you should go for 300,000.

 

[[TW]Fox]

Replaced the bench didn't you

No, it was the biggest over-reaction ever I noticed it when the bench was out of the car whilst I was doing the rear suspension years ago and wondered how to remove it. Put the bench back in and it turned out to just be where the seatbelt buckle sits, thats all

Indeed. Fox's care and attention is evident. His car is in stunning condition for the mileage.

That car, it just screams "I don't even lift".

Probably because that first pic is at least a year or two old...

Summer last year i think so it was hardly taken at 40k was it?

Silver Saloon....

I didn't realise electric engines sounded so cool.

The E39 shape really has aged well. Still looks quite sharp.
