My dad has a 250L diesel one he inherited from a builder who didn't want to come back and fix some snagging, so left all his tools instead
 .I'm not sure how old that one is, but it was made in West Germany, which is definitely an indication. In its 15yrs with us its wanted only for a new set of phosphor bronze bushes. I fully expect to be inheriting that when he passes, and I will warn the lad to expect it when my time comes  |

3500 miles a year, you'd be part ex'ing it just because you want to. As you say I'm sure you'd get more than a decade out of it before it started to give you any trouble, probably moreif you got some lanoguard or similar on the non-shiny bits
 I've booked the iX to the local BMW stealer to have some niggles addressed. 3rd March, I wonder what colour the pov spec 1-series they give me as a courtesy car will be... |

Washed SWMBOs Toyota , first time since about Sep/Oct come up a treat, can't make up our minds whether to PX it against a newer one it will be 4 years old in July we paid £22,000 for it PX offer is £17,250 it's only on 14,000 miles so would last us for years yet .

Washed the ML. Probably the 3rd time since buying it... In AugustMuch to the annoyance of the Polishing Brigaded - aka any Jag forum - mine got 2 washes in the last 12 months, one of those being a dunk in a puddle. |

Bought it in the UK , 1980. Simple German made standard electric mixer. No on off switch.
Served me well especially here where it regularly ran from dawn to dusk. New owner is Dutch. I wonder if it will still be working in 2072 ! |

Dont need the solar panels (Ive seen the pic btw) as I have free charging.
Would rather there was a free to use petrol pump at work, but life isnt perfect.  Might just fix the PAS on the roller skate and hope it (or me) lasts until I plan to retire on 28/10/29.  |

A mate of mine used to run a business importing gliders from Germany, and he had one of those. Apparently, when he was late for the ferry, it was quite happy towing a glider trailer at 120 MPH.
