BHPian Dippy recently shared this with other enthusiasts: On average, a car is used for 5-7 years before buying a new one. Coming to the new purchase, some stick to a model from the same brand, while others shop elsewhere. I owned a Type 2 Honda City, and with that still in the garage, I brought home a Civic. That made it two Hondas at home. Looking back, the factors that made me get another car from the same brand:ReliabilityPocket-friendly service costsEasy spares availabilityPremium brand feelDriving experienceI didn’t go back to Honda after I sold the Civic and the City. I now own a Mahindra and a Volkswagen. However, I’m sure many on the forum have stuck to the same brand when going for a change or upgrade to their existing car on more occasions than one. Looking forward to hearing your experiences and the factors that made you do so. Check out BHPian comments for more insights and information.
