Fantasy Old Car Ownership

I try to rate cars using this scenario; an elderly uncle leaves you the chance to pick one of his old cars out of his fantastic collection, after he has died.

Here are the snags:

(1) You must use it enthusiastically every year until you wish to get rid of it.

(2) You must pay all the bills and he has not left any money for you to do this.

(3) When you have had enough of it you must give it, immediately, to the charity of his choice.

Now do you still want a Ferrari?

So what car would you pick?

His collection is huge and was made with great taste, all the cars are in excellent mechanical order, and like most of us, your annual budget has practical limits.

I think I might go for his Vauxhall 30/98, but there again............
