I've been close to giving up on my S70 back around 160,000 miles - everything was breaking all at once. 2 years later and at 212,000 miles, the thing still runs. Great, actually! Stuff randomly acts up, but I know I can't buy another car for the same investment that can stand up to the amount of driving I do with it.

That said, I never want another used car.

A learning experience is one of those things that says, "You know that thing you just did? Don't do that."
