what cars do people think will be future classics? not talking super cars just cars that 99% of us might beable to afford.

 

Corrado VR6 supercharged?

 

Passat tdi.

 

focus rs

 

focus st dont think there will be too many around in the future like the mk3 xr3s are now

 

Racing puma?

 

i would say the xr3i, orion ghia and equipe, 5\6 rs 2000 + 4x4, vw jetta gti, many really and all affordable depends what takes your fancy

 

i think most cars will have a following as most old cars have now tbh

 

There won't be any, the E.U are going to have them all crushed.

.

 

dare i say asra gsi,nova gte

 

E30 M3 will be worth good money in the future..

 

old mantas and chevettes, they don't do the numbers that old mk1 or 2 escort sports derivatives do.
also subaru impreza wrx ra's the early ones are the ones to keep same goes for stuff like early skyline gtr's

 

clio williams maybe

 

always liked the opel manta mk1,old boy round the corner had one when i grew up,gold it was mint,remember a mechanic told me when opel were developing it it was known as project corvette,dont know if true or not.

 

clio willams sounds good, as does racing puma.

got an empty garage space so planning on buying a low milage mint car and keeping it say 8 years. hopefully make abit more money than the interest in a bank.
ps i no there is risks in doin this!

 

XR4is

I think most car's to a certain degree will be classics but if you mean cult classics then thats a different story. I would like to think that the gul yellow Volvo 850 T5-R will be a future desirable classic.

 

fact.. old road car rally derivetives always do big money in the end, deltas,old early m3's,cozzies, they all go up. the worrying thing with clio's is that they did one and all the speculators bought them and then did another and another and the values of them turned to shit, if they stayed with just the first one i would agree.

i keep looking for a 1st gen legacy rs like mcrae drove, they will go up i assure you

 

Anything, take the god awful thing's we built like the Austin Maxi and Triumph Herald,
They were shit when they were new, but now as time ticks away they are 'classic'

 

205 1.9 gti
clio williams

 

I've had a black one for sale for a few months and I've had several viewers. They expect a new car and seem surprised that it drives like a 15 year old car. Full history, Rica chip,Steffinson suspension kit and back box. Excellent car for the money but I don't think they're going to be that desireable as the Volvo enthusiasts are a strange breed. Had one guy come from Manchester three times, HPI'd it, checked it with Volvo register and was happy. On the last visit, he comes along with his wife and she said, It's not like the one we had before." So, he didn't buy it!

One bloke mailed and called me for over a week and was near to tears because I was on holiday and he couldn't see it for a week. He does the HPI, checks with Volvo register and I told him each time that it's one of the better ones but don't expect a mint car. He liked it but said it was a bit rough. It was the first one he's ever driven.

So if the yellow one is going to be a desirable classic, it had better have delivery miles and plastic wrapped seats or one of the picky tw**s will find fault with it.

Anyway, surely the M5 will always be a classic, regardless of the model!

XR4x4......... under rated and getting very hard to find a good one.

You seen the price of them, If you ever see one for sale that is

 

Err... did they make a factory supercharged version?

Last of the line Storms being fully loaded should and believe have this status...

In the last 5 years I sold 2! For a grand a piece... They were project cars needing a rebuild to

 

wish id kept my carlton,bet that will be worth a few quid soon

k-reg black manual 3000 gsi 24v

was a cool car to jump about in at 21

 

m guessing he means the G60.

personally i think the first SLK will be worth good money in years to come, some thing about the shape and style that imo opinion doesnt date

 

I hope G60's will be ive got one sat now that i have just rebuilt.........lol

 

PM'd you mate

 

Not officially the supercharged was the G60 1.8

but you could buy a supercharger kit from vw for the vr6, a few had them as extras.

 

I had one of those and a 12 valve too and they are great fun, a very rare and underrated car. I'd have another if I could find a manual again but they are rare as fuck

 

2nd that.

they already increasing in value.
nearly double what the were 5 6 years ago!!

 

The new shape Ford Mustang?

 

Spot on!

All cars will become classics to a degree with age, due to just that!

Obviously, rarer and more interesting cars will become more valuable than the run of the mill.

But yes, I like the sound of all Corrados, Racing Puma, Clio Williams and V6, all M-Cars etc

 

the new dodge charger to and ford gt, cult old skool classics in a new form

 

Toyota Celica GT4 ST185 Carlos Sainz.

 

Mk 5 bonnet bulge RS2000 for sure

 

I dont know about classics, but desirable - RB5 Scooby and the Colin McRae one.

M-Cars will be, especially the E34 as it was the last of the hand built M5's.

 

Mondeo ST200 s
