Hi, is it realistic to think the R60 can be considered a life time car? Something you always keep as a kick around car?

 

I dont know about 'lifetime' but I've had mine since 2012. It has 190,000 kms (118,000 miles) on it, still looks good / runs well and with no major problems to date. It wont have a lot of trade in value at this point so I'll probably continue using it as a backup car until it dies.

 

We are keeping our R60 as the kids car, as long as I can keep doing my own maintenance we will keep it. My running joke is every time I take it to the dealer for an oil change I get a suggested maintenance list totaling $2000. Just got one today and they wanted $800 for the front brake pads (& rotors I guess) and $1200 for the rear shocks. Like clockwork, however I don't get any other work done there.
