My '95 Ford Taurus. First of the oval window models. I bought it in July of '96 w/27,000 mls on it. I had it almost 8 years to the day. Sold it with 223,000 miles on it and would of driven it cross country except for the body damage, (I had a small incident with a Mazda on the freeway).
Here's the maintenance and repair list: 67 Oil and Filter changes 3 sets of Brakes Serpentine Belts 6 sets of Tires 4 Coolant flush/refills 2 sets of Hoses Transmission service Cam Sensors Alignments 1 set of Struts/Shocks Battery Starter Starter Relay (different times) Set Ball Joints Set Catalytic converters Transmission Rebuild (197,898) Set of plugs (3.0 L V6) Never had the engine open. I'd still have it today if it weren't for the stupid Mazda driver.

1986 Volvo 245DL wagon. B23 4 cylinder. 4 speed manual with an electric overdrive for fifth.
Eleven years. Hated to sell it, but we were moving internationally and we couldn't bring it. Several sets of tires. Several brake jobs; pads and rotors. Plugs, and ignition parts. Flushed the brake fluid every two years. Can't remember replacing callpers, but did rebuild them. Replacement exhaust system, aluminized and guaranteed, for resonator, muffler and tailpipe. Got a free muffler and tailpipe second time around. Replaced the water pump once, battery twice. Adjusted the valves. A fan belt, and a couple of rad hoses. Quite a few halogen headlight bulbs. Rear shocks. Oil and filter changes every 8000 km. Regular lube and inspections. That was it. Never touched the clutch, transmission, alternator, engine, fuel injection, etc, even with towing occasionally. Never stranded us. Did overheat once, towing in the mountains, crawling speed due to road construction.

1976 Peugeot 504 Diesel. Somewhere over 200k it developed a cooling problem that couldn't be solved. During ownership I hardly replaced anything. It carried 40 gallons of diesel. During the gas crisis I used to piss people off because while they were in line
To buy gas I would drive up right by everyone else to the trucker pump, fill up and Drive off. One night I filled up and the guy came out to see where I was putting the Fuel. He thought I was stealing it. The front seats would pull forward and lay all the way back and line up with the Back seat making a bed It had four wheel independent suspension and four wheel disc brakes which very few vehicles had at the time. It was a 4 cylinder standard shift that was slow as molasses but at the time I saved tons of money and few people knew that I installed a four channel Alpine high end audio system.
