So... what car do you guys drive when not flying?

Well, there is a car for sale in the UK that I have always wanted, ever since seeing them run at the Thousand Lake Rally in Finland in 1976, (I still have the t-shirt). Anyway, I can afford it, it can come here in a container with a friends bits and pieces in a year. I have somewhere in the UK to store it as well.

I have even been to the old factory, bit sad, isn't it? It's now a museum.

Question is, do I buy it? SWMBO says she doesn't care, but I have to find somewhere else to park my toys, so what do you all think? About 350cc of pure power....


Or maybe I should just buy the ex Cosworth F1 engine from a Benneton....... Just as well I don't live in the UK!

Gifted a 2020 GLC 200 with 26k kms. Was looking at a BYD Seal or a i30 initially. Looking to change to a 4-matic E class estate, I don't like rear wheel drives.

Perhaps when I graduate to a full license I'll find one a Japanese imported S213 E43/53.
