I saw a few nice cars on ebay and locally, and somehow I got hooked. I got mine at 16 (just about 3 years now), and I've owned a total of 4. Still own 2, sold one away, the other to my brother.

As far as costs go, these cars can't be beat. Well I'm sure they can, but I love my car, so whatever.
That's not unlike myself. I was fascinated by SVO/WVO as well and researched it quite a bit. It wasn't the reason I liked diesel Benzes but it was an interesting aside. My driving habits and the fact that I'm too damn lazy to deal with the extra work made the decision for me.
