How sentimental are you about a vehicle?

Only trying my best............

No, every time I get into a stressful situation I end up buying a car.........

So, from the list you can see I have enjoyed a reasonably stressful life so far.

I bought my first car when I was a year out of school in 1985. Today I am 52 and have owned 48 vehicles of which 7 was Motorcycles.

I don't know, here's my list, decide for yourself....

I suspect Oldtimer doesn't know how to remove the license Disc Sticker - so he just buys another vehicle when the license is up for renewal...

The only car I got sentimental about was my NP300. It was as literally as tough as nails.

It was as literally as tough as nails.

...and as comfortable as sitting on them...

This one has me sentimental, the rest are just cars[emoji1751]‍[emoji3603]

For those that don’t know, Hybrid her name, not because of electricary, but the diverse sources of her being!

Datsun drivetrain and body, Chevy small block and BMW gearbox[emoji12]



This one is also starting to grow on me, my previous Rok had a lot more character and took a lot more abuse, but we are quickly catching up!

Thank God then for Nissan's coil springs in my Navara...

Are they as comfortable as the leaf set up in my Isuzu bakkies?

Ive only bought and owned a few vehicles and loved em all and have never sold one ...
First was a purple glass fibre 1400? Beach Buggy
and it was a ball ... gave it to my brither who drove it around the bush in Zambezi valley till , as he said, “ the carb melted “ ????
Then I bought a yellow 1600SP Beetle ... never knew how how lucky I was to have it until some arsehole stole it.
Then a Ford Laser sport hatch (mazda) also stolen, nice car but probably the least character ... also stolen.
Then my 81 R-River Classic 2-door 3.5L, for years it took us everywhere still have it but needs work ... probly the greatest Land Rover of all time.
Then My 2002 Defender 130 DC HCPU , still have it and still think of it as my new car ...
Then about a year ago bought the 1975 Series 3 88 SWB ... just a project for years ahead
The wifes Corsa and now Polo are good functional run arounds but nothing special.

Top 3 were mine and the rest Swambo's. I progressed to 4x4s after that wonderful 328.
Yes I know the numbers descend over time but that's the ravages of inflation.

[BushWacker]

... well ... you should have 2.8i Defender...

[HenriSteyn]

The engine is good on those but the rest of it, well.....

Last time I counted I have owned around 58 vehicles to date. Not very sentimental on vehicles.

Only vehicle I have ever sold that gave me a lump in the throat were my Ford Cortina bakkie. Done many mods on it. Very few cars could keep up.

No ways! I thought I had a lot but over 35 years I have owned 25 vehicles.

Not counting trucks (5) tractors (2) boats (5)

I loved each one at the time.

The ones I had two of and drove most kms in was Camry, Sentra and Toyota Dc

Most loved is a difficult question.

Most was love/hate!
