    Didn't want to pollute the other thread, but I reckon more people would have these kind of stories, unfortunately. :p

    So many rich pickings - Ferrari, Lotus, TVR. I reckon when I get my Hughes 500D, that'll be the winner

    Well, car wise, my best effort was a BMW bought for re $100k and sold for $40k two and a half years later...

    Aircraft bought for $160k, sold for $70k.

    I bought a 72’ LJ Torana for $200 when I was 16..
    Drove it on my L’s for a week..
    Got pulled over by the cops for driving an unregistered vehicle..
    Cops removed the plates and told me to walk home..
    Sold the car to the wreckers for $50

    $50 for a Clubman GT in the eighties was a bargain! BTC!
