I could only imagine that it's a spare car, if you're able to afford it to be out of action for 4 years.
And if someone were to keep it for that long (and not look after it), with the intention of fixing it, I hope they're not charging you for all that time.
Also, it really irks me that ScratchTehEPICSpaceDude's name is so long that it actualls pushes his chat-box out of line with everyone elses.
