What are your favourite bike buys of 2023?

I bought a 1985 Peugeot Paris Express (peak cheapie 80s mtb frame/fork geometry) for a tenner.

I'm single speed converting it. It will make a brilliant offroad/retro single/klunker.
 
Some nice scores! I must say, I've had my best year in ~15 years of vintage MTB collecting

Has to be the 20" Fire Mountain I found on Facebook Marketplace. Even though it turned out to be a respray, and despite the damage to the decals due to the seller's careless packing, it was very satisfying to get my hands on it and ride it before starting to make those inevitable small changes.
