There is no budget really, just needs to be worth the money.
That is a lovely car but I only value it at £8k... Some ridiculous inflated prices going on and in a year or so it be worth what it's meant to be worth again.
So if I'm holding it for 5 years then I don't want to throw away money.
I believe a low mileage 2.9 in perfect condition to be worth as much as a 3.2. Buying a classic car collectors want a standard car... And it's only worth collectors money if its standard 🤷🏻♂️
So being a VR6 fanboy I prefer and r32 lump but it's a modified car then and not worth classic car money, only worth modified car money (what someone's willing to pay)
