Raleigh blogger Mike Helms has a list of 12 things you should do to help make your car last. It’s advice that hits home to me since I’m truly trying to preserve my VW Golf to 200,000 miles. Some of this is common sense, but it doesn’t hurt to take a look.

I have some experience in this department. My 1990 Volkswagen Golf Diesel lasted over 250,000 miles. My 1986 Scirocco gave 150,000 miles of faithful and reliable service, and the Mercedes I currently own has over 100,000 miles on the clock (and is still quiet, tight and wickedly reliable). Every car I’ve ever sold has been in excellent condition; with the possible exception of the Scirocco, they are all still providing good service.
Without further adieu: my top-12 list of things you can do to make your car last longer.
