                  You must be mad, if you can't afford a newer one, don't bother. Scrapyard dealers and furniture shop owners cars at this age, trying to look successful. If you are 60+ you might get away with it, otherwise - forget it.
                  Don't touch the Ferrari either, mondial is gone and best forgotten.
                  Both will break regularly, cost a fortune to fix and put you off ever doing this again.

                    Get a drop-top roller and look like a 1970's pools winner.

                      Just remembering Top gear, when they bought a cheap a Rolls, or Ferrari etc and gave it a test drive then it broke down after a few miles, needed the engine replacing, or other expensive repairs and then there is fuel consumption. I reckon that thing would cost a fortune to run.
