I can understand you keeping one pristine in a bubble (to a degree) - but to own two and not drive either

As they will be made in late 98 and there is no model report available for them to get registered over here. So best to wait till they are 10 years old and then no need for an sva to register them.

can i just ask why do you have 2 and not use them, surely this is a waste of a good car (or 2 in this case)

Because he is waiting for ten years where he only needs an SVA instead of EVSA... (and therefore does not need a model report)

so why not get a Ferrari testarossa or something similar? IMO you`d only make money selling to a scoob owner, whereas a ferrari you`ll be more likely to make something in the future.

I don't hate you (I don't know you) but I must say that I have never understood the mentality of anyone buying a car simply to keep it garaged.

If it were mine it'd be getting caned ona regular basis.

Okay, so it might not be worth umpteen thousands in years to come, but I'd have had the use, and more to the point the fun of ownership, rather than some nice photos of a car in a plastic bubble and sod all memories of how it drove.

I could not agree more, Andy. Yes keep the first one bubbled, but this new one, drive the dam thing, thats what Subaru built it for, to be driven.

Sorry, IMHO you're wasting your time if you think these cars will appreciate enough to cover the cost of buying them, storing and maintaining them, epecially when you factor in lost investment opportunity. They're not even the ultra rare Uk edition? I too have never understood the mentality of storing sports cars and not driving them. Good luck to you owing these lovely cars though. The UK 22b I had lost £20k in value from it's most expensive point in 6 years. It'll be a hell of a long time if ever it'll be worth £20k more in real terms any point in the near future.
