Ah well even if so we've never had any problems with salt nor having to take special care of the cars because of this, in fact you rarely see rusty cars in here :think:

Very cool Lincoln :grin:

Here in Texas if the car is 25+ years old you can register it as a classic car, which costs $15 more per year than normal registration. But in my opinion the only benefit to the classic registration is so you can use license plates from the original year of manufacture. I don't know why anyone would pay the extra $15/yr just to get those boring "Classic Auto" plates.

That is a lovely car, I used to love these Continentals watching the exploits of Frank Cannon as a kid, especially the concealable headlights and the vinyl roof with tiny oval opera windows were, and still are cool details in my mind.

Bought a car for winter driving. It's a BMW 523iA from 1998. Picked from Sweden cause it's cheaper there.

Nice indeed. A handsome E39. Does it have BMW’s ASC+T (Automatic Stability Control + Traction Control) system?

Our BMW 325i (E36) had that as an optional extra. It might have been standard on the 5-Series. If so you’ll like it. It really helped in poor winter weather driving.

Not me, but my wife has a new car since yesterday.

She dropped her dreaming about a new Nissan Quashqai, a Mitsubishi ASX or a one-year-old VW Tiguan. Then would be no money left for vacations or so, and it seems, that in the next time she wont get a homeoffice like me, so she decided to purchase the car with the best fuel efficiency. It was a randomly found lucky pull in the Internet, so she had bought it for putting into the garage. She hopes, that her 2000' Astra G DTi will face the upcoming salty glaze-months. As long the engine is only rattling and can be started again after the increasing shutdowns, she will keep it.

You wouldn't have liked that, would you? :grin: Or to you are they really no worse than most other new cars? (you once said you haven't really liked any car made since the early 80s)

Naah, it wouldn't be bad for me. In fact I don't really care about them at all. It's her car, her decision. Although we are married, cars are separated. Everyone buys his own car and pays the costs for it on his own.
The main interest for her is, to have a car with a low fuel consumption for her daily way to work and back of 130 km. And she's not a real classic car fan. Sure, she likes some (not the K 70, but I don't care about that), but the daily usage is the main thing.

Sure, I don't love my Vauxhall, as the Omega, the Passat and other all-day-cars, I had before, too. I like it, I have fun with it, but I'm not a fan of it. I need them for all-day-driving, but not for hobby or pleasure.
