Contemplating my Starion ownership and was also wondering how long others have had their Starions for. I know of a JA near my place that I know has been owned by the same person for at least 20 years, if not from new. I have had mine for about 12 years.

Coming up on 5 months now, don’t know how much I’ve spent, probably around $6500 inc reg, insurance, the car and keeping it going.
I have a car. I use it to drive to work, to drive to work I need petrol, petrol cost money, I must work to make this money… it’s a vicious cycle!
