Shopping is less tedious in a classic or I would say proper car. Also shop late to get all the bargains.

The only time it doesn’t get used much is when they start salting the roads. Even then I still take it a couple of miles a week too get everything warm. I mean why would you not, tax free motoring and thousand times more fun…

Totally makes sense! I know how bad salt is for cars, especially proper classics. I’m really looking forward to experiencing a classic as a daily driver. The more you drive them, the more reliable they become. Sitting unused is their worst enemy.

Yes. The same people who use the car as an ornament, drive it once and then I does it start… You need to use them as much as you car really. And look after them. Salt is a killer here …My kind of rule of thumb is. If its a nice day, take the MB, if there is a dribble of rain take it, but if there is salt, rainstorm or a smart motorway envolved then I will take the Superb (which itself in a 63 plate so about my modern cut-off) Someone ran into me on the M4 smart motorway stretch and when you have experience not having a hard shoulder it’s scary. I have driven the MB on normal motorways and duel carriageways though.
