... twenty years of life out of a 2001 AU2 (excluding prangs).
In my case, based on current usage, it will have 220K on the clock, by then. Things on my mind include... How many Kms could be reasonably expected given engine service every 8000kms? What part-failure would cause the car to be most likely not worth repairing due to cost? What things do you recommend I do to keep it alive for the next 8 years? Is 25 years, even 30 years, beyond reasonable expectation?
