I agree i look at mine and am amazed at the condition of it 15 years old
Years ago a classic car that was recognised by the DVLA was only 25years old tax free
and most cars of that age then were rust buckets
DVLA had to abandon the tax free as most cars now would be a clasic, Albeit the owner of it must have OCD
Cars have improved there metal and the preparation build is amazing now
The new car market must suffer with all these old cars about
I have recently experienced the government bringing in the new immissions control
on vans prompting people into buying new ones
My van is 14 years and is very good condition albeit a builders van, this is partly due to me

Love the car :) :)

Nice looker - I have its' smaller twin brother ('98 1.9 in hellrot).

Hard to believe they are 15 years old after all the rust buckets I've had over the years.
