Before I bought the 135 last year, I spent 6 months looking around for a suitable sized and secure garage to rent so as to buy/import from the USA an nice 50's/60's classic car, but such garages are very hard to find and cost a fortune in London where space is at a premium.

So, my money went on the DD and I bought the 135.

I'm still hopefull that one one day, I'll have somewhere to put something like a '56 Chrysler Hemi hardtop, '57 Old J2, '61 Corvette, '66 Stingray, '63 Plymouth Sport Fury Max Wedge, '64 Galaxie 427.......etc.,etc

Of course I'm still partial to classic's from my own side of the pond, such as Jaguar MkII, Ford Escort RS1600, Jensen Interceptor, Lancia Stratos, almost any 1960's Ferrari (even though they are largely all rubbish)

The lottery win buy would be a Cobra 427 and a Roy Brizio built '32 Ford 3w Coupe with a Hilborn injected SBC
