For a 6.9, you have to compare the value of your enjoyment for the rare times you drive it vs. the repair cost, recognizing that it is probably a depreciating asset unless you keep up the maintenance (cosmetic and mechanical). In other words, even if it's free this is an expensive ownership proposition.
