Turning 20.... - Page 2

My 75 will be 20 this year and I have considered replacing it with a Eurobox!

I soon came to my senses and shall endeavour to keep her on the road as long as possible.

As to values, I have no interest whatsoever in what she is worth or will be worth. The value is in the pleasure she gives me every time I drive her.

If you worry about what you have sold in the past and what they would be worth now, I would have nightmares! My Vincent Comet, bought for £15 as a non-runner and sold running for £55.00 a year or so later. Similar stories for several motorcycles and cars bought and sold over the years.

Enjoy life, enjoy your cars, bikes, friends and family whilst you can.

I agree with your sentiment about values and worth. It is a pointless exercise. Cars are for driving and enjoyment.

You should reconsider your thoughts about "Euroboxes". I would be quite happy with this one. To me, it is the Angelina Jolie (when 30) of the car world!
