I Note you have had over 70 reviews but no one has had the courtesy to reply or make comment, you must feel rejected. Happened to me and others I'm sure. Well I'm just posting to say G"day.

The author of the article does sum it up nicely at the end, saying that the enjoyment of owning and driving is the reward, not the pounds and pence of financial gain.

 

I tried to copy and paste the last paragraph, but for some reason that doesn't work, a feature of the new forum perhaps?

Conclusion

For the average owner, purchasing a classic car and returning it to its former glory is a labour of love. Whether they sell the car or not, most recoup their investment with long drives through the countryside or by attending car shows with other collectors. In other words, they get enjoyment out of owning the vehicle that cannot be quantified in terms of pounds and pence.

I thought the baby boomer generation, in general, had done the tout suite game in the 1980's and was bailing out of the hobby due to old age. Oh well, maybe the author was required to provide filler for the website. Journalistic fodder preceded the car hobby and will surely outlive it.
