Old git on old bikes

Wondering how others select a bike for use in winter. Road salt, rain, snow, low light conditions all have to be contended with. Personally all my bikes have mudguards and are grease ported at hubs/headset/bottom bracket and pedals and water, grit, salt can all be purged. So other than a tyre change any would be suitable.
My choice is then made on the basis of which bike has least value to me personally and that is invariably never the lowest £ value. In fact this year it is the highest mometary value bike I have but least desirable to me that has been selected to bear the brunt of the potentially 5 months of road salting we get up here.
So how do you choose yours?
