    A couple with grown up kids that have moved out and left their van to die, they aren't the richest but have OK cars for the area.
    A large apartment in a poor part of Newcastle (UK), with the occupants owning: A 2003 BMW 520 with a large dent in the passenger door, a 1997 Ford Galaxy which is rather rusty but they can't afford to replace it and a 1998 Ford Fiesta that should have been scrapped years ago.

    A gearhead with a fondness for relatively cheap GM, with a wife who does not really care about cars and is content with a Kia crossover.

    A 2-bedroom apartment in a kinda crappy part of Kiyv, with ownership of a garage with a 1992 Audi 80 1.9 TDI wagon inside, and a vandalized, beat-up 1982 Moskvitch panel van parked in a nearby lot?

    A gearhead who wanted a big enough house in London to support their hobby and has a daily driver Countryman, with a spouse not really caring about cars and driving a Mitsubishi ASX, and a 17-year-old child who got his or her parent's hand-me-down Focus that got replaced with a Countryman.

    An expensive townhouse in central Paris with a 2002 Smart Fortwo and a 2010 Dacia Logan MCV in the garage?

    A middle-class family that bought both cars new, and just wants to drive them until they die, just like they drove what was before the Jeep into the ground.
