Cool projects Willem. Given how easy it is to 3D scan and reverse engineer original parts, suspension or even chassis points, what you're doing could very well be a sustainable hobby for sure, if not more.
I started 3D CAD with Solidworks and it was a bit of a shock at first how dated and unintuitive CATIA looked. But I got used to it, and as I got into surfacing and working with full car assemblies, it became a no-brainer. I'm sure the back end is quite similar between CATIA and Solidworks. Even with V6, CATIA lags behind in the visuals compared to most other suites. But it's also amazing how scalable this software is, considering the original V5 came out in 1998 (!), and is still in use by most teams in top level motorsport, as well as automotive OEMs and aerospace companies.
