I prefer to drive my cars rather than push/repair them
Was talking about old cars with my boss today actually, its a shame but most really are a case of 'don't meet your hero', because they are old, unreliable, badly built and you inevitably only buy them to look at or drive occasionally. Id love an original Beetle or Karmann Ghia etc, but it probably wont ever happen. Like I said, shame as some old cars look brilliant and have so much soul and personality compared to modern crap.

I had a 74 beetle and a 69beetle and never had a problem with ether other than of you went over 75mph in the 69 beetle thwn stoped it wouldnt start agane untill its cooled down. That wos down to a bad seal around the engine bay.
A guy who lives not far away from me has got a ds and he says thay are a bit problematic but once you figure out how evrything works you can keep them on the road all year round.
Yeah people will say dont buy it but i like a challenge.
Iv had my fair shair of old classics that are "unreliable" and you dont buy one and not expect it to go wrong. Thats just part of owning a old car...... Or a french car.....

Precisely, I dont own a 306
hahaSeriously though, I suppose if you have the time and money to commit to owning and maintaining a car like that then it will be great fun, your in a fortunate position if you can do it
