Silver Honda Civic (standard transmission), 2000 model, about 70 or 80K km (50 thousand miles) on the clock. Excellent car, never had any issues, serviced religiously. Absolutely the only thing that I don't like about it is that it does not have cruise control.

Dodge Chrysler van (grand caravan ES) - it is one of those "touring, air suspension" types, 2001 model, about 130k KM on the clock. It is the fully loaded one, I use this for long travelling, very comfortable, economy is somewhat less than the Honda (around 30 mpg, costs around $70 full tank to do 500 miles, like Toronto to Chicago). Again, no issues with this one. This is a bronze minivan too.

We have a third car (this was actually our "spare car", so it does not have a lot of mileage, given its age (also around 50k miles) - it is a Bronze Mazda Protege, 1998 model, also never had any issues with this one - love to travel in this one when I am alone (it has cruise control).
This one, I am not too sure about, because my mum might want this one.

The cars are all religiously serviced every 3 months or 3000 miles (my dealership loves me for the business!).

Either of them I would be sad to give up.
