You can say that again. But some other equipment hobbies are much worse, try classic and vintage handguns, crazy!!

You know you can’t take it with you. 😜

I see your username. The Bentley 3 litres are lovely.

My all time favourite cars are the Bertelli era Astons. I fell in love with them about 20 years ago when they were 10x less. Ouch is right.

Sometimes I find the pre war car market a little discouraging, as many cars are gobbled up to sit in private collections, never again seeing the open road, nor being shared with the public, all while prices climb as people speculate on them.

Double ouch!

It would be so much easier (and considerably cheaper) to set light to a humungus pile of tenners but.............

That just gets insane because then it requires real estate, you need a multi car garage or building to house the collection. 😯

My username is actually a nod to the Peter Elleray designed Bentley which culminated in a win for the final iteration of that car at the '03' edition of the annual twice around the clock race in France in June of that year. Designed and engineered by the Brits, but could have been badged an Audi.

Thank you for sharing. I remember Bentley winning, but I am not familiar with the car. I will have to look into it.
