My what a lovely piece of artwork you've bought yourself. It is a shame that it wont be used for anything other than being looked at...

Cars over 20yrs can apply a classic car license that allow to be driven 12 days per year.

One few more that you might not be interested.

Are you planning on actually driving it? Cheers Mike
I think it is very well maintained, no leak no smoke.

On the other hand, I have a watch collection of about two dozen, mostly from the 1910-1960s, that sit al over the house. I wear about 3 of them. Sad. At least they (cars and watches) are kept original and taken care of.
Are they Rolex? I was told they just started to raise like the Porsches 2 years ago.

50 kilometers is almost 32 miles. this car will probably go into a museum somewhere.

You can't tell the shape of the inside of the engine from the outside that easily - but it does not matter, this car is going to sit in a museum or be shown somewhere, and not driven. That is pretty sad, but I guess having someone preserve cars like this is pretty good ....

BTW, how do they track that you do not drive more than 12 days a year??

Cheers,

Mike

Outstanding. I would add a 993 narrow body with 80K on the clock as your drive around car! Some live parts of their lives out vicariously through Facebook and their smart phone, I guess others do it through cars. Whatever works for you is good enough.

Well Hong Kong is rather small, so 50 miles may be monthly commute miles

A gorgeous example, glad someone is keeping it for future generations to drool over
