I've been doing it for nearly 2 years now. Started January 2010 and just kinda kept going this year. Have had some great fun and my photography has improved no end!
I'd say just do it for a year though and make a huge list of things you want to shoot / techniques you want to try.
I have...
I lost a fortune on my 182. Bought for 5k, sold for 3.5k 16 months later after spending probably 2k on unexpected repairs!
My personal favourite though was my first car in Korea. 1995 Hyundai shitebox, bought for 350 quid from a mate, had an accident after a month which cost 200 quid to put...
This has been my most viewed most days for the last week or so. I haven't uploaded much new stuff, but this seems to be getting a lot of views from Google searches - nearly 200 in the last month!

I had a Janspeed supersport on my old 182.
Really decent quality, sounded nice without being ridiculous for when you just want to drive normally.
I didn't have any complaints :)
Funny really, I went for 12 months without a car after selling the 182 and moving abroad.
Didn't really need a car, but a mate was leaving and offered me his old car for pennies.
That lasted 7 weeks before the gearbox died, but I had to go out and get a new car within a few days!
Seems weird...
I did about 20.5k in mine over 15 months including a couple of 2k+ epic trips around Scotland and another around the Alps! Might as well drive the things haha!
Mine yesterday with 66 views / 3 faves / 7 comments.
I didn't even like the shot to be honest haha!

I agree that it is pretty quiet in October!
Did you find the amazing Mexican restaurant in Split? It only has 4 seats, run by a guy from the US. The best Mexican I've tasted!
