I was behind a white V yesterday. It looked pristine. And, this is in upstate NY, land of winter salt galore. It really looked sharp, I have to say.
If a v has good paint, no rust and clear headlights it still looks modern. They are rarely seen these days other than locations where they are taxis like Vancouver. Around here gen3s are dying out.
You can't go back in time though. Perhaps that's the attraction for classic car collectors. An expensive hobby.
I suppose that’ll happen eventually, but it’s been cheap-as-dirt for 15 years now, and with only ~65k miles (and very little short-drive), I think it’ll be a while yet. considering I’ve got a year on you, could well be our last car.
My 2012 has only 36,000 miles, was technically rustproof by me when new, had less than 3,000 mile oil changes, 3 year coolant changes, 18,000 mile transaxle oil changes and parked under a carport. I in the Upstate South Carolina with just about one snow period. The underbody is washed at least twice a year, the next will be when there will be no more overnight freezing temperatures. It will probably eisily last another 10 years.
