How old is the car you usually drive?

[AW111]

I will kick off with mine : daily driver is 22 and 195,000 miles.

Weekend toy is 28.

Rally car (not mine, but I'm the navigator) is 47.




Now what was all that about electric parking brakes, stop-start and Bluetooth again?

Surprised at the poll results so are: why are all the stereotypical PH company directors driving 10-20y.o. cars?

Maybe they are all too busy to vote


I posted this poll out of curiosity, because I and most of my petrolhead mates drive (and tinker with) older cars, so I wondered about the PH members.

In my experience it is generally those who regard cars a just a means of transport who change them frequently, because having a new car is more important to them than having one they enjoy driving.

7 Years old. 67K. Feels like new to be honest.

Well it practically is .

As it's my poll, I have been keeping an eye on it.

The percentages have barely changed from 500 - 700 votes, with 10+ years at around 50%, split 41 : 9 between 10-20 and 20+.

Voluntary polls are always skewed by who bothers to vote, let alone who tells the truth, but it's been fun to watch .

I am surprised that no one who has posted yet has a brand new toy, but drives something older day-to-day.
Unless they did and I missed it

As I'm commuting in the 22 year old tow hack (4wd van), while I finish reassembling the 28 year old toy (mk1 MR2), I salute you all!
