I feel like one of the few these days.

I bought my Impreza in May 2000, it still sits proudly on my drive - used daily.

That's 10 years with the same Scooby and it's standard bar a backbox.

Anyone out there, can better that?

 

nope 3 years for me.......

i wish it was still standard, all that wasted money.....lol.....

but still love driving it every day, never bored of her...

 

3 years but going to be forced to sell as I have a lot of cash tied up in mine

 

I've just had mine over two years now. And tochwood has not let me down accept for a few prangs due to other road users.

She is used everyday and love it.

 

Not me, only 4 years (from 1 Mar) and certainly not standard, wasn't when I bought it and even more mods now with a train of them coming through the tunnel

 

7 years of ownership and workedit up from 265 bhp (std) to currently 416 bhp. On a 02 STi with 97k on the clock.

 

April 2001 for me - a P1 that's now mostly tucked away in the garage after using it every day for the first few years - it has had a few mods (brakes, airflow, mapping for UK fuel mostly, after it blew the first engine). Love it - no intention of ever selling it.

Gordo

 

3 yrs, 12,300 on the clock.

 

3 years & a lot of money spent

 

3 years, various mods 336bhp/390ft lbs torque.

Driven mainly at weekends - still love her to bits, wouldn't sell her ('er in doors would have to go first )

 

3 years for me,longest i've ever had a car

 

Almost 4 years now and still love driving it, still puts a smile on my face

 

Beat you by a few months!
My WRX arrived in the UK in December 1999 and I picked it up on 4th Jan 2000.
I had to immediately drive to France and back via the Chunnel to register it as a Personal Import and then wait about 3 weeks for the registration documents to arrive from the DVLA.

Still sits outside the house and gets used daily.....over 150,000 miles later!

Although it was completely standard after 7 years in Japan, it's since had a few subtle tweeks and still holds its own against most other cars.

 

You Bu99er!!

Let's change the rules to proper UK cars only!

 

1996 - 1999 : MY96 Classic Turbo 2000
2005 - Current : MY04 Blob STi

Will be gone before 2011 though

 

1999-2003 dbm classic
2003-2007 uk blob sti
2007-current hawk sti
2008-current gb270 wagon
12 years in all but 4 years is best i can do
all uk ones though

 

5 and a half years

 

wow thats a heck of a time to own a car. I wish I could own a car that long

Ive been driving for 20 years and i have NEVER had a car longer than 8 months. Its only recently ive calmed down. My wagons are 5 months and 1 month in my ownership.

I must admit I think I will break the 8 month deadlock this time....

 

1996-1999 red classic turbo 2000
1999-2004 grey JDM STI v5
2004-* blue STI UK

14 years of continuous scooby ownership and almost six years on the latest one. No plans to sell it, so should be a few more years yet.

 

nearly 4 years, longest i've had a car for and certainly cost me the most!!!

 

I know Simon that posted this thread

Think he's had his genuine UK Turbo longer than you.

 

Just to be pedantic, you're still a few months shy of ten years.

 

3 years for me now. Started as a daily but is now mainly a weekend car.

 

03 WRX, coming up to 7 yrs in May from new. I wish i had left mine standard as when the RB 320 came out i really REALLY wanted that! LOL.
I still love it though but still want more!

 

I must be the baby of the bunch. I have only owned mine for1 year next month, but I still enjoy every minute behind the wheel.

 

one and a half years, and its burnt a serious hole in my pocket!!

but i love it still

wiley

 

7 years for me and the longest i have ever owned a car. Me and my banana/trifle/custard tart have been through a lot. I am getting a CTR very soon but i know i am going to wish i still had my scoob. Most reliable car i have owned.

I want a more economical car and one that is a bit smaller and less yellow

 

Pete, as you well know I can out do you on years owned for my car, and you've seen it

Took delivery 12th September 1998, ordered it on 7th February 1998, and I know several other people who still own the same Impreza they bought before me!

 

I have owned mine 3 years next month, bought it with 65k, now with 87k on the clock.

 

be 3yrs in may, started as a daily driver, then took it off the road for 8 months for a respray and face lift,then off the road for a further 2 months as the day i bought it out from the respray the engine went pop, now just a weekend toy and still loving it
