You know, guys, I think this has really gone the wrong way. They guy asked about a car and everyone pipes and says "that's not a good car, here's a better one". Look, the car is probably fairly priced for what it is, and what it cost to build it then and even more so for now. It has some things about it some people might not like - I'm not particularly fond of the engine treatment - but if he likes it, that's OK. I happen to like British Racing Green. Many do not.

And the suggestion to spend $20K more for a Kirkham may be good advice, if he has 20K more to spend.

To each his own.
