majority of our stuff is 20+
the ranger at 5yrs old is what brings our fleet average up to 23yrs
otherwise the commodore based fleet is at 26yr age average :D

The one that brings my average from 18+ to 25 is my 1978 Lancia ( same year as first commodore ) , I've owned this since 1985.

Id say its potentially a demographic area related thing.
Go up into semi rural or country areas and youll find plenty of commodores and falcons.

Average for me is just over 18yrs.
But I also see plenty of older cars out my way, maybe its because the area never really had the appeal of "keeping up with the Joneses"

Warrnambool is like Commodore city... Though don't expect great sounding supercharged V8's, expect terrible sounding mang mangs and rattletecs on the rev limiter with chopped springs and in extremely poor condition, in other words bogan spec sponsored by centrelink!

Something like this...
Probably see a heap of commies sliding round at warrnambool speedway!
