well it depends.
Most car's here are imports from Germany so they caught some rust over there already...climate over here is nice, no harsh winters, so rust isn't big problem.
Biggest problem is that most of these cars were involved in accident in some part of their life so they rot from bad bodyshop repair

And pull to the left due to far too much bodge rammed in the left side after a drift went horribly wrong. If you look down them you can still see the cellulite of the fat womans leg!!

Yours is a minter mate, Love the wheels, i'm going to be gay and copy you!!
I'll check with the manager

That looks great - and the wheels do look good - love the polished lip.

Stupidly didn't realise that you could get the exhaust tailpipe trims separately but now that I know that you can I'll be getting a pair to replace the manky ones on my cabby when it comes back.

Good looking Diamond Black paint always looks great. Keep up the good work!

people over here like these cars but there is a few ones willing to pay for nice example...no money here fella, average payment is around 500EUR a month so most people wouth rather drive small newer car with small diesel engine apart from investing in car's like this one. It's a money pit, we all know that.
Most of them here are garbage with no spec at all....316i, M40, moredoors without sunroof, PAS...not worth to built, but some of my friends are driving pretty nice examples
