Your car ownership history...

2001 5 series, to a 2001 Mondeo

2002 5 series, to a 2004 Mondeo

Did the 5 series' break per chance? :p

First one moved abroad, was about a year between them.

Second one miles went up considerably. 525i auto was getting around 25mpg mondeo around 50mpg. Plus can't take a petrol car on site only a diesel. Had to park the BMW miles away (only had the Mondeo a few months before company car, had the 525i around 4 years)

I'm on number 3 now in two years.

First - Mazda 3 2.0 - decent car, had its issues and rust was killing it but I've learned a lot in it and loved driving the nuts off it.
Current main car - BMW Z4 Coupe - love this to bits, such a classy looking thing, I've wanted one since I saw it at a car park many years ago.
Fun car/gfs main run-around - daihatsu copen 0.6! - tiny little thing, loads of fun to drive!

All of them -;
