Well around here, as well as much of the East-Coast, I consider most cars that aren't garaged, and are subjected to a wet and salty environment to be 'temporary transportation'. That said, I managed to get 5 years of more than occasional use and enjoyment out of my very-rusty '60 Fintail.
As for that Euro 300TD, It ran great, but was more rusty than either of my 240Ds, so I passed.

Happy Motoring, Mark
