Maybe, but it will be a very long time before I might get back what I've put into it financially. I think we should regard our cars as a hobby and drive them (says he, who doesn't drive in the rain!). That way you can get more fun out of them (IMHO).
You wouldn't buy a set of golf clubs, or a fishing rod, and expect to sell them for more than you paid for them.
Yes they do still represent bargain motoring, but what's wrong with that? It gives ordinary blokes a loads of fun without breaking the bank.
The way I see it is, that I've bought a car that's in pretty good condition, so I won't be afraid to use it. I won't use it in dirty weather, so it keeps nice. It will hopefully not lose too much money whilst enjoying the experience. You wouldn't buy a set of golf clubs, or a fishing rod, and expect to sell them for more than you paid for them.

Hi Drak,
Just a engine from the past, been looking for something to put it in, looked at a 3000m but was to far gone to restore, puts out 295 bhp, started off as a 3.4 bare block import from SA.
might find a car one day, a Cortina might be an option if I can find a good one.
