Simple case of the majority of owners in the last 7 years or so being more weekend and sunny day drivers, rather than daily drivers.I know it happens, and it is a disaster. But with all the traffic on here, I just can't remember anyone posting that it happened to them since I joined.
People probably *are* being more careful (god knows I was when I had a 4200) but that's a part of driving a car. Now I'm far more careful parking than I used to be (although hitting a kerb is not likely to make my engine grenade )

It's what happens with any specialist type of car as they get older.Data to demonstrate that? Not (trying) to be funny, but that's almost wholly a perceptual comment

Good example is my Stag.
When I bought it back in 86, it was still only 12 years old, and many where daily drivers, including myself.
By the 90's, the youngest 20 years, most of those in the owners club had them as 'toys', second cars, as back then before the internet we met up every month at the local pub!
Come on, there isn't many 32/42/GS being used as a first car these days, in all weather's, yes for GT's being newer, but not 32/42/GS.
Mine was a dd. That was 3 years ago.Dunno, mine gets an outing once a week or so to work unless it's snowing or icy
