Mini Mayfair 1000 5 yrs (awesome, i really, really miss it. Sometimes i dream about it)
Citroen zx 1.4 3 yrs ( flawed, but great to drive)
Skida Felicia 5 yrs (cheapest car ever, owed me nothing)
Skoda Octavia vrs. 7 yrs (More fun, fasy, not cheap, can’t see a reason to change)
That’s over 20 years. Good going I reckon
