I think technology will be the savior of our old cars not the death of them. The wealth of information on the internet is a huge asset to home mechanics. 20 years ago you would have to take your car to a mechanic or be taught by one. Now YouTube is my mechanic. Hopefully in another 20 years you’ll be able to have a set of pistons and cylinders 3D printed and shipped to your door the next day.

Engineers and designers are always going to want 911s. It's a car that is beautifully engineered and beautifully designed. There are plenty of other cars like that too, say old Alfas, Citroens, Peugeots and Mercedes, but nothing else combines the engineering, timeless profile, sexy hips and face of a 911.
I'll post up my own car at some point, still getting to know it.
