Not wanting to start a fight, but how about 2121-12-12? Just over a century to wait.

ummm, cultural issue, when you say "02-02-2020" is that DMY or MDY? Excel (despite setting region to a DMY zone) still very easily confused too often gets it wrong is a POS but unfortunately there's still no spreadsheet better.
after many otherwise intelligent sounding suggestions that achieved nothing the nice folks at Technet said the only solution was to low level format my hard disk then reinstall my signature. Sadly, this still didn't fix the issue!

Not sure, but I thought / went with DMY and - with MDY.

Nope.
A palindrome reads the same from either end.
It is required to have neither a mirror plan nor an inversion center.

It's at the point where we don't even need to lock the doors because nobody in their right mind would steal it. I think it bluebooks for about $250 but it runs so well we haven't had the heart to give it up. The radiator fan is hardwired to the ignition, the drivers sid'e door is practically falling off, the power window on that door sounds like a cat in heat - it's been in a major collision (before we owned it) and parts of it are held together with zipties.
Toyotas are ridiculous. The entire car is falling apart around the engine, that seems to be the most durable and enduring piece of the whole mess.

Duct tape helps

Yup. Apply WD40 to the parts that are supposed to move, duct tape to the parts that aren't.

1. Buy all the parts except for the engine
2. Replace old parts with newly-purchased parts
3. Profit.

I didn't do that. A mechanic did.
It was either that or pay extra to diagnose why the hell the thermostat wasn't kicking on.

My '98 Camry V6 station wagon ('97 build) is still going strong. Travelled round the moon, started on the return journey.
One engine bearing (somewhere in the top end I think) is getting a bit talkative, and the suspension is a bit loosey goosey.
The foam rubber behind the headlining cloth disintegrated, but a staple gun cured the vision issue.
The tailgate wiper doesn't (wiring issue), but hey the original aircon gas is still there.
Toyotas are virtually unkillable. (Top Gear had to try very hard!)
Cheers,
Peter

I just fixed my car today. Rear break lights were constantly on. In 42 degree celcious heat the break plug (whatever the offical name for it is ! the thing that keeps the break sensor switch pused. ) break away. Replaced it with a screw. Youtube video helped to find the solution. Saved myself a trip to mechanic and few quids and impressed wife with my mechanical skills.

To be fair, for the most part, that can probably be said for most cars nowadays. My Charger (2006, first model year) has had some rust spots done, but engine-wise, there hasn't been a need to touch anything. Not to suggest that anything is "falling apart around the engine" in my case.
I only replaced the (original) battery last month. The car is outdoors 24/7/365 and has been through -35C temperatures. I work from home and hardly have any mileage - and remaining stationary (especially when exposed to the elements) is a lot harder on a car than driving it regularly.
