I purchased my first car and did wonder if it would ever reach 30- I still own it and it is now 66 years old! I think these cars are at a similar stage and with care & attention I see no reason why they shouldn’t reach this status. Yes some difficulties will always exist with classic ownership but the flip side is that more & more people & companies see the demand and move accordingly- The Volvo 240 & other stable mates are a lot easier in many respects than some earlier classic cars- have a go at restoring a wooden framed car- rust isn’t a great issue if tackled properly but fortunately descent cars are still available—time will tell- they deserve to be passed on.
