    Some people buy them on a whim then decide they are not for them , some people are addicted to them and some just buy to sell on at a profit later .

    Me n Lou regretted selling our last one in the mid 90's and it has taken a long time to get our latest one up and running so i probably think she will still be in the family in five years time , we may even be touring Europe for month's on end in her .

    Fingers crossed we shall still be dubbin in 2017 with Rhubarb , what about you will you still be aircooling it ?

    Depends if we get a half decent summer next year. If not I'll sack it off.

    I hope we'll still have ours. The only things that could get in the way might be financial issues (for example, if we get hit by redundancy/unemployment) or if we start feeling too old and creaky to carry on faffing about in such a small space (backs getting too achy etc).

    Stig is here to stay - will have to be something very worthwhile to get rid of him - heart and soul gone into Stig - but Noah regrettably being sold so we can finish Stig!

    No idea, but I hope so. I do generally hate selling stuff, so will have to get seriously *******ed off and / or broke to flog it.

    I hope so. It has become such a big part of our lives I can't see that stopping. I may even have sold up business wise by then so will be able to take off on those long road trips.

    sANDYbAY On benefits-won't sponsor!

    We've put a lot of time and love into ours so it would take a very serious financial issue to make us sell him. :D

    This is one is hopefully a keeper, but it does need a beetle for a buddy

    I would hope so but you never know - there may be a point where the upkeep outweighs the benefits and I wouldnt want her to sit on the drive just rotting away. Could do with a semi decent 2013 to start with though.

    Gusbus will be a keeper, definately - Major I dunno, more than likely (unless a 15 window split comes up in a couple of yrs time)!

    We dont get out often enough, 2013 I wanna explore :)
