And each had more than 2 years left of the 3-year factory warranty. I drove the first one, an Opel, for well over 200,000 miles (365,000 km or something like that), and my current Toyota, with about 80,000 miles on the odometer after 6 years of ownership, still feels and runs like the day I bought it.
