Welcome 
.
As an investment I.E you will make more money when you get rid? Or as a great vehicle to have and enjoy?
If the latter then go for it, but to enjoy it you will need to spend money, sort of a catch 22.
It doesn't matter if its a good time, what matters is you don't look after you have 1.
I would also ask if this is in preparation to actually take it back to the U.S, so be careful of the rules.

Hi and welcome!
In addition to the above, unless you get one very cheap that doesn’t need much spent on it, a Landy is never going to be an investment. Better to buy to enjoy and look upon any appreciation of value as a bonus. The best bet is to buy one in the best condition you can which should mean that you’re less likely to be hit with expensive structural work to the chassis and bulkhead. Otherwise, there’s lots of good advice on here if you use the search function and elsewhere on the internet.

No idea
All I would say is they can be fun and hate, but hopefully the fun outweighs the hate.Yes! this would be to take back to the U.S.! I have a new 23 Toyota Tacoma for my daily driver so this 110 would be to just tinker around with and have fun …who knows where things will end up with it but they seem to be a huge draw in the U.S., which is where the investment part came from. Yes Im aware of the $ draw but them seem to be one of the few vehicles where you can get a good return on what you spent, compared to most (in the U.S. market). But you all are the experts, which is why Im asking here.
I don’t know the full rules but be careful if you intend to take it back to the U.S cos I believe they are pretty strict.

Step away from the Landy.
It does, they are bloody terrible cars.
I have deemed my responses essentially worthless. Or maybe I am just living in a dream world thinking of Trump. Lol Have a nice day!
Can't say we did not warn you.
