    So we all have cars that "Refuse to die"

    Anyone else see this?

    Some models just seem to keep rolling along, whistling past the junkyard. We've identified 15 cars with exceptional and sometimes surprising endurance and value.

        Ha. The very next one, a Cherokee. My first car I ever had was a 90 Cherokee, 4.0L engine. I had it a year, neglected it, beat on it. Changed the oil once, it leaked like crazy, rarely put any back in. It eventually met it's demise in a loud thud and puffs of smoke driving home one day.

              No joke about this. Bimmershark has an E30 that would look like it's on its last leg, but nope....that thing just keeps going.

                        Hey that does look like Chewbacca! That's the stock photo they use on wikipedia. I'm pretty sure Blunt uses it on his website as well.

                          My mom had an 84 Volvo DL for 15 years. Bought it with 120k, ODO quit at 270k. Ran like a top for another eight years for 40+ miles a day. So, figure close to 400k when I wrecked it (and the Jeep I hit.) I would be dead if I crashed my e30 the way I crashed that Volvo. Amazingly reliable and solid car, well deserving of being on this list.
