I know! Makes me want to puke! GO through all my old mags every once in a while, prepared rally and escorts and minis going for under 2k. So, what car can we buy for a grand now in 15 year time will be worth over 20k?? Ideas people!!!

gcfcos

I was racking my brains on that one. I'd say perhaps some sporty small renaults and i bet saxo vts or vtr will become as valuable as novas are now?? Obviously all the ford rs range will become more valuable. Maybe focus st? I had thought the top of the range e36 bmws will shoot up in value

It's everything now.
My XR4i that I sold for Ł500 in 1999 would now bag me Ł2500-Ł3000. Same condition and all.

I still maintain people will be kicking themselves for not buying decent Classic Imprezas, evos, pulsars etc. There are cars among us now that will be worth a lot in years to come.

I'm trying to hold on to my V6 STi for as long as possible, low mileage and been here from nearly new (2000) with full history. It's certainly better than my money being in the bank with interest rates!

I agree with the classic jap stuff, just sold my classic Impreza for a little more than we paid 3 years ago and I know they are only going to increase if they're good as most have rusted or been rallied.

I think you could well be right with the saxos and clios too, and as someone above has said, classic jap metal. Well, if the markets continue as they are and don't crash.

Plus add up insurance, running costs, spare parts etc for the last 15 years and it will come to a bit.

Unless you have lots of space, waxoyling and storage costs can add a bit on as well
