Good options shown above. I am guessing you are looking for a reliable car with "softer" as in less unique, characteristics. Cheap and easy to keep. The cars listed above (most of anyway) are good choices. Just be aware of owning "classic" types they can carry issues. Reliability for higher mileages, maintenance costs, rust,etc..Very nice to own but .......be prepared.
The replica route could be good. Last month on a run we were at Tintern Abbey. There was a stunning Cobra from AK there, one of the good manufacturers. A sensible way of owning a classic without the £££££ and with modern mechanics.
