As was stated earlier the electronics of new cars will make restoring them very complicated, restoring a car thats 50 years old is pretty straightforward.



Try restoring a car with sophisticated computers and electronics, youll need a PhD in digital circuit design to try and 'rebuild' the stuff that makes the engine run.

Its not like a V8 from 1965, the only thing electrical about it was the alternator.


And I dont anticipate the 1 series (or any modern car for that matter) to last 50 years, so rebuilding is not a question of IF but more a question of WHEN and HOW MUCH.
