Over here, were it rains every other day, cars rarely last more than 15 years. However I had a 15 year old Renault that didn't have any body rust, it died due to blown head gasket and I drove it till it stopped in a clattering, spluttering and finally silent coast to a halt. She died well.

1.5 years in my twin has no rust except the disc brakes.

No spark plug change?

Nope. However at 100,000 I'm doing that plus much more.
