Im late 30s For me I looked at the price differently, it's basically a £10 k to £15k decision. I buy it, mess around, worse case is if I sell it that's what I will lose. I will gain all manner of benefit, clearly the drive, looks etc, but my father tinkering on it, a son and daughter (7yrs and 5yrs) having memories and maybe even getting an interest in design or engines or some other rub off. No doubt I will meet some interesting people, to avoid motorways I will end up discovering more of Britain. Oh, and have a huge smile on my face. £ 10k to 15k is a small price to pay for all of that.

Life is full of sensible decisions and the great thing about the M3W is that it gives a healthy two fingers up at sensible logic and that should be celebrated.
