A woman in the USofA has owned the same car for 48 years.  Will our BMWs last that long?
 
I'm guessing not due to all the electronics in them.

Surprised it has had so many batteries, that's one every 2.5 years.

There's an elderly chap near my folks who owns a split screen Morris, he's had it since new and strips it down every year for the winter. The car looks new. No idea what the mileage is.
