The beauty is having the privilege of owning both a modern and a well taken care of older vehicle. Well sorted out, truly immaculate, and one with real character to drive. We truly appreciate our classics. In turn the modern ones are more of a cocoon and isolate the driving experience. They lack the character of the vintage. Even new ones well into 6 figures. A different breed and experience. Each with their pluses and minuses. Ours do not stay stock long. Even then it is still a very different experience. You find yourself not driving both eras the same day. Different handling, shifting etc throws you off doing so. But they are fun to put through their paces or just cruise on a nice day. My vote is having both if possible.
