There's also the advantage of a 'vintage' car not losing its value when you want to sell it.
And even vintage cars are mostly way less expensive than modern ones.

And in the UK you pay not one penny in road tax for a car aged 40 years plus :)

On bulbs - I sometimes wonder if maybe the glovebox light is still be on after I've shut it - how could you tell? :hmmm:

Taking out a bulb, well, you will be strafed with a hundred warnings about this f'n light does not work and that you will have to see garage maintenance immediately.
I will never buy a car anymore that is less than 30 years old.
Go f' yourself, automotive industry :arrgh!:


Don't sugar coat it Dude, tell us how you really feel?
