How many owners!!
Hi all just thought i'd ask all you guys how many owners your tintops have had, so i can gauge what is the norm and what is exsesive, and do you consider that a high number of previous owner is something that should be avoided? looking forward to your replys, thanks

bearing in mind your car is at least 24 years old, it will have had many owners.
mine had (according to the lad i bought it off) 3 'last time i checked' :dontknow:
i think he meant 8 :evil:

mine is 3 former keepers but is a late 1988 cabby.
I think if I looked at a car with 10,11 or above owners Id just be extra cautious as to why its being moved on. Might be genuine ie a run of owners who bought for weekend and circumstances changed. But on the other hand may be due to some recurring issue, condition is king.

The trouble with doing nothing is that you never know when you are finished.
