Understandable, if I had a monster like the one mentioned above, it would be limited use, a few thousand miles a year to keep fuel and insurance costs down, and taxed for 6 months during the summer too.

Yes i agree , i has some Civic in 90´s , nice fast ... but more like big cars . My fist was Mercedes Benz W126 280SEL from 1988 and i has over 400cars from 1989 when do drive licence . Mostly buy for some repair and drive , then sold .

The car is almost completely restored to its original condition, I just have to replace the rear window and repair the paint on the door. And that will be all ...The ride is still amazing
