Luddite, you raise a very important point that is often forgotten by me. A 1975 Porsche can send the "feeling" of being simple and manageable. That sounds very positive at first, but as you say, it can be deceptive. While the old 911 lacks any electronics that can take on a life of their own in newer cars, you are absolutely right that maintenance can be much more expensive than with a Morgan. I have experienced with the Tangerine Targa how quickly an engine overhaul can cost significantly more than I paid for the Coupe in total. That is really the other side of the coin that you have to take into account.

PeterG please let us know your impressions when your Alpine 110S is with you. I am very curious.
