in my case .. I was driving an 85 C900 8v Auto until a few years ago .. Had over 300,000 km's on the clock. It was slow, ran like a champ with just fluid maintenance only basically, and was cheap to insurance.
I wouldn't say I went looking for trouble when driving, BUT .. I did have less of a care ... It was more like "go ahead and hit me, isn't going to cost me as much to fix it as yours will cost you"
Then I got a '93 C900 with only 50,000 km's on it (it had been babied) and that attitude changed quick ... Ditto when I got a new 9-2x Aero this year
