Hypothetical Questions - from a real conversation

All of my artwork is one of a kind and I need a way to duplicate it easily. It's too complex to have to program in.

*ahem* er ummm - originals questions guys - focus...

1, maintenance costs of an ff brand runner and

2, suggestions for modest priced cars.

thanks
 
This is not within your requirements but another thought. A modern car that could be a driver, over budget at $55,000, "limo" type ride, jump seats, wheelchair friendly, see the brochure below. When at a hotel that had one for a shuttle I got up early before the rush and hopped in. The driver asked me where I wanted to go and when I told him I just wanted to go for a ride he was amused and took me for a lap around the state capitol. The desire to buy one and open a selective limo service has passed, well, it had till you brought it back up.

By the way, this is a photo of the kid next door who got married about two weeks ago with her Dad helping her out of the wedding car. I'd still choose an A over a T, but you get the idea. This, by the way, was a very hoyti-toyti wedding with a fair number of well-known people so the car wasn't just a cheesy add-on.

I have been looking at older north american iron - and some is very pretty, and prices are good as there is less and less a market as that generation of owners passes away. SWMBO and I were chatting about this the other day and she made a point about the Buick in my first post - she wants something cool but not so big that the two of us would look silly in the front seat going for ice cream. At this point, if I had the cash and the space (which I won't for the forseeable future) I would be very interested in Daimler, also in the first post. It also has the advantage of being highway useable - which a T really wouldn't. All that said, this appeared on Kijiji this week. Drool.

I cast my vote for the 41 Buick. Great looking car, easy to come by parts, and easy maintenance.
