  Should I restore my classic car? 30 Apr 2018 (News)
  But if you’ve got 1990s modern classic like a Mercedes-Benz 190, taking the car off the road and having it restored will cost you significantly more money than the car will ever be worth. In this case, you’re better off taking the MoT advisories list and adding jobs to it.

  A Grand Monday: Ford Sierra 2.3 Ghia 1 Apr 2014 (News)
  They might seem a bit fragile inside these days, and as they were built to survive a set lifespan (that's long gone now), don't expect your Sierra to feel like an old Mercedes-Benz inside. But then, any left now, will undoubtedly have been cherished. Which brings us on to the car I spotted this week in the ads. It's an early example, built within a year of the Sierra's launch, and particularly nice because it's a low-mileage specimen with all the toys.

  Colin Peck has been collecting, restoring and writing about classic cars for almost 30 years. He has been involved with a number of car clubs for makes as diverse as Mercedes-Benz and Checker cabs, but it was while living in the US in the early 1990s that he renewed his involvement with old Austins, buying and acquiring a 1954 Austin convertible. He restored the car in the UK and later acquired a 1950 Austin Woodie from Canada, which he also restored.
