Default Has anyone here bought a vehicle as a Superannuation investment?

Hi all,
We (self/Mrs) started self-managing our super (SMSF) after the 2008/09 GFC.
Turned it into a deposit on a flat - so far, so good.
Been thinking of throwing a lazy $10k at a (relatively) cool oldish ('80s?) car/bike, not too flash, and wondered if anyone's done this?
Looking at the ATO rules, it comes across as a pretty s#itty deal:

1) can't drive/ride it EVEN FOR MAINTENANCE! (FFS)
2) can't display it
3) can't keep it at home (or business of a 'related party')
(Sounds like the ATO aren't keen on anyone wanting to do it)

Keen to hear if anyone here has donevit, or knows of it being done???
