I suppose time scale and the value of money itself would also have an effect,for instance:My first car was a '59 Ford Consul bought for £38 and they're now pretty reasonable money now,so technically if I still had it I'd make money selling it,however how much would I have needed to spend on it in the last 50yrs or so to have kept it in a condition to make such money as they now do and now 50 or so years later what is the original £38 purchase price taking into account inflation etc.worth? So would I have actually made any money on it?
