What is the longest you've ever owned a car, which car, year, make and model?
Why did you get rid of it in the end?
I will start.
My very first car was a 1987 Honda CRX.
I only kept it one year because I needed more space so I traded it in on a white 1988 Honda Civic hatchback.
I kept that 88 Civic for 18 years and in doing so put on a total of 533,000 kms.
I put on so many kms because I drove it on many trips to Florida and California from Toronto.
I kept it because it was great fun to drive, manual, a little sporty, comfortable, good fuel economy, hatchback practicality.
I got rid of it when everything like the steering and suspension started to get loose, the body began to rust out, even though I really wanted to hit 600,000 kms I figured it was not worth risking my life in any longer.
I can report that the engine never died it was still going strong when I sold it to the scrap yard.
Whats your story?
By the way if I end up liking the GR Corolla as much as I think I will, it will probably end up being another keeper like my white 1988 Honda Civic.
I just have to hope 🤞 it's as reliable.
