Peter,

I do not pretend to know why your interested in the car we all love. Artistic value, its rare, or your just another car guy. However I thought I would pass along a thought of mine. I always said if I could afford an original I would buy it, but I wouldn't drive it on a road, because I couldn't stand the thought of it ever getting destroyed.

To my point, I would also purchase a new Kirkham to drive for fun.

In the many interactions I've had with people, especially those who ask "is it real?" or "is it an original?", my response is pretty much the same as yours - buy a replica if you want a car to drive for fun.

OTOH, my thought process might be different if my investment portfolio was significantly larger.
