How old do bunnies get?

[Maya & Inka's mommy]

Our bunny Billie is 6 years old. My daughter got him as an easter-present when she was 10! Billie is still an active bunny; a bit naughty however: he BITES !
My question is: does anyone here have an idea as how old our bunny can get? When we bought her, they told us it was a dwarf; but he looks more like a normal bun, just a lil bit smaller. She is also healthy.
Here she is:

According to the House Rabbit Society...

Rabbits often live into their second decade. Early House Rabbit Society literature reported rabbis living only 4 to 5 years. This misconception was likely because of rabbis dying at an early age due to poor management, rich diets and lack of ovariohysterectomy (spaying). In our experience, 10- to 12-year-old rabbits are not uncommon, and rabbits as old as 14 years have been presented to our practice. We have not as yet determined the record-breaking age for a rabbit, but there are anecdotal reports of rabbits living 16 to 18 years.

I hope Billie is with your family for many more years!
