2. Eleven years later
Purchased in 2004, this RRC was 12 and some 60 000 km (about 37 300 miles). Not guaranteed, but the previous owner drove quite a bit (it was only one of his 3 vehicles and not the one he used the most), so the mileage was credible.
Eleven years later, she has 170 700 km (105 600 miles) et bears the marks of certain aging. First I have to say that she's parked outside.
However, in Reunion Island, between the heavy rains and the sinking sun, not to mention the sea air and spray on the road coast road, the equipment suffers a lot. Add to that that I'm not a very serious owner. Well, I do have repaired what must be repaired, but I tend to consider as a fatality aging and degradation due to the time.
