It's a strange thing, I was thinking about that only yesterday driving to Glasgow !

how long do you keep a car for profit 5, 10, 15 years

do you keep it that long you 'pop your clogs' before enjoying any cash return ?

and all that time you never actually enjoy the car as it's sat in a garage doing nothing

Just drive it and enjoy it... cars are meant to be driven, if it ends up being worth more in the long run then that's a bonus.

Or sell it on to someone that's going to enjoy it... which is what I'm probably going to do next week if one of my potential buyers comes through with the cash... otherwise much like yours mine will stay in the garage until I have the time to sort it out.

well I would say drive it ( but not on as a daily hack ) and not garage it ...had mine since 2002 and probably do 1k mileage a year on it in recent years , so I think the value will double in 10 years time ,

regarding "popping your clogs" do anyone really know when ?....also you can always put it in your "will" to pass on to your loved ones !

Most of us try to keep our pride and joy away from our loved ones.
