Ian,
I drive a '73 Spitfire each day (except when the snow is higher that the
axles--being self-employed allows me that flexibility) here in the
Washington DC area. My annual mileage is about 9k. I've found the car to
be more reliable than an '85 Volvo wagon (and it's pretty bullet proof)
I was using. Sometimes, driving on our beltway gets a little scary when
I find myself playing the role of Oreo cream filling between two
semi-truck cookies, but overall I enjoy the lively drive to and from
work.
