I've been using a beater Berlina with a trailer for 18 years and 96K 
s/miles. Unfortunately, said beater is nearly at the end of its colorful 
career.  Besides being so rusty as to require cardboard boxes to keep the 
dog from falling through the floor, I finally lost reverse this past 
winter.   But it does have one heck of a soul, and nobody gives me *hit 
when I merge in traffic.
