How many previous owners?
« on: June 30, 2006, 15:31:11 »
Looked at the V5 for the Suzuki and it's had 13 previous owners.... since 1990 - just 16 years!  :shock: Poor unloved thing!

Can anyone's car beat this?

The most I have ever had was 18 on a mk2 escort rs2000. But it went well.

But MarkM from CRAG has owned the Disco from new, its a H reg, 1990. 200,000 miles and counting.

My dad is the third owner of his 1971 S3 LWB, 2.6.  The first owner loved it and kept it for years!

This thread is suggesting that most 4x4's are loved and kept for a reasonable time...... unlike my poor Suzuki! Still, I shall do my best to make up for it  :lol:
