Ten years ago a friend of mine was replacing his old beater (80's Nissan Stanza), at the time he owns (still owns) a 1967 Fiat 850 Spider (glass headlight covers!)
He found a <span style="font-weight: bold"><span style="font-style: italic">great</span></span> deal on a 1980's BMW 740i, I told him that he should just get a basic family car (ie. Toyota, Nissan, etc...) because I just knew the BMW would be a money pit and probably unreliable, but he just had to get the BMW... He rarely drives in the first place and that car cost him way too much money, especially considering the fact that he's basically on a fixed income... Needless to say, the BMW is long gone, I think sold for less than he purchased it for plus all the repair bills he racked up... The Fiat 850 is still going strong
Yeah... This Bentley looks like a huge money pit...
