I would look at the car from the point of view of how much personal work it is going to take to to get the car to the level you want to achieve. Then ask yourself will I have fun doing it? Then, buy what you like and can afford with no expectation that you will make a profit. If you are going to keep the car, the amount of any loss is spread out over several years having all that fun! The last point I would make is getting in and out of 28 & 29 cars is not easy if you have big feet!! Ed
