Completely different world.The TC is now not so much a classic as a vintage car - a great toy if you like tinkering and dont want to use it as transport, but extremely irritating and frustrating if you do. There is no comparison with a modern 4/4 whose mechanics are from a different era.

So really the answer is more about you - how you want to use the car, what you like doing in your spare time, how mechanically competent you are, whether you have a beard. A TC isnt so much a car as a hobby.


That's very true.. I have dreams of touring around in my 4/4 but in reality its usually short runs on local roads, a few events etc etc,. Mechanical stuff I'm ok with, it was my living during the 70's and 80's so not much I cant tackle and I have a lathe and tooling. I enjoy the tinkering aspect very much.. oh and the beard... its gone .. for now. So as a TC owner profile I think I'm close! As for the one I was looking at... dithered too long and its sold frown
