As well as my Alpine, I like to have a daily driver "budget" classic Rootesmobile. Something different and interesting that I can leave in the carpark without worrying about someone stealing, scratching or smashing it. I'm on my 5th such car in 3 years now and my rule is that they should cost no more than $1000 to buy and when sold I should get my money back. (so far the dearest one was the Vogue (in the previous post) @ $500 but I made nearly $1000 profit by the time I sold it, partly due to the Tiger clock which came in the usual box of spares)
Latest one is a Hillman Hunter Royal (sold as Sunbeam Arrow in the US). Bluey is a neat but unpretentious little sedan who just starts every time, goes where you want him to and gets you home again. With an iron-head 1725 and BW Auto transmission he is no road rocket but he does the job! His pics are here.
