Go for it! We recently bought a 35 year old vw ‘van without much prior knowledge and haven’t looked back yet (even after having a wedge of work done by a specialist).
I think as long as you’re comfortable communicating to a decent mechanic about work that needs doing and you have a some cash left over for said work owning ‘a classic’ isn’t as scary as some make out - just buy a decent one to start with.
Thanks folks. Done a lot of reading on this last night and it doesn’t seem like it would really be that difficult to look after.
