The dirty colouring is due to bur, carbon, debris and any other gunk that gets in there. An old car will generally have really dirty oil because the engine is becoming worn and has carbon deposits on internals and various other gunky bits. The cleaner your oil is when it comes out the better condition your engine is in.

I wouldn't worry about over indulgance "too" much, mine is 2 years old now and I give him a good thrashing now and then, im a liftaholic, he is still running beautifuly and the oil still comes out clean :).

As far as I know, it's a good thing for engine oils to become dirty. It means that the oil is doing its job.
