Can't understand the values placed on a lot of old cars. I would prefer a couple of flats instead.

Maybe. I may have got it wrong but a lot of these old cars will require much ££ from to time on maintenance and they don't earn their keep year to year. Nice to look at in the garge mind!

Just about everything; slow, gear whine, soggy suspension, aged brakes and a flat, farty sound. I don't get it either (especially at that price) but if it floats your boat, go for it. Each to their own!

I appreciate your point Frank but I don't do art either! If I was to spend £135k on a car I would want one that excites me as a driving machine and that just wouldn't do it. It might be a culture/maturity thing but it's just not me. I know you would love it so, as I said before, each to their own!

....well....to some the Spyder is more modern art.............beauty and all that........anyways...way better than sticking it in the bank or a flat!
