If there was a marque that was more expensive and troublesome to maintain, it would be Rolls-Royce.
There was a late 70s Rolls in a BAT auction recently. I think it brought about $3k. Why? One reason - it needed brakes. Now, the average person would think, "Brakes? How bad could that be?" $7,000-$8,000 worth of parts bad, I believe. It had other issues as well that would drive the cost of getting in shape exponentially higher than the acquisition cost.
