M3 CSL

No chance!! Never would you see a csl for £10/12k

Hehe, maybe not. But if you did get one for that much you would be fairly sure it wouldn't go lower

Might not get it for £10k any time soon though

Integra Type R DC2.

Already going up.

Are the DC 2s the models with the twin headlights and not the combined units?

[Matt UK]

Straight Mk MX5 / Eunos.

As they get crashed / modded / rust, I think minty mint ones will go up in value.

With your budget, buy a few.

They were both DC2s. The twin headlamps was the car in the UK/EU/US market and the combined was JDM.

Bentley Turbo R. They're still available at 10 - 12k. What other car gives you so much for your money? Probably not for those who like to track their cars.

My choice would definitely be the Clio V6 Mark 2, if you can get one for 12k. They have never dropped in price like the Mark 1 version, so have yet to end up in many council estates (well not willingly anyway).

As said before on other threads BMW 840 Sports seem to be holding up but must be mint and low miles.!

[Porkie]

Clio V6 mk2 is great shout actually mr Omega.

Cheap to run. Very different to drive. Real 'event' car

Tell me, is the air on your planet thinner than Earths?

Old style Audi RS6 should start holding value, maybe appreciate. IMHO

If you can find a straight Caterham 7 it should be a good investment. They would be at the higher end of your budget but worth a look!

I can't see that for one second. Caterhams are "Trigger's Broom" cars with parts aplenty and are always going to be manufactured for the forseeable future.

Classic hot hatches. If kept in original condition and well looked after I don't see why they wouldn't go up in value in the future when they are rare.

I only wish they were!

[Braintax]

Escort/Sierra Cosworth, Golf MK 1/2 GTI, Lupo GTI, Capri's,

[NadiR]

E36 M3 Evo in a long time I reckon will appreciate. The E92 is the last Coupe to wear the M3 badge as the next on will be called the M4. When all the bad M3's have been crashed, and only the mint ones are left, they will IMO go up in value.

[sjabrown]

Lower end of the budget but already unmolested low mileage 205 GTIs are on the increase (1.6 and 1.9). Numbers taxed on the road have dropped hugely recently.

No, they aren't classic hot hatches. The Pug 205GTi, VW Golf GTi Mk1, R5 Turbo are all good examples of classic hot hatches.

The Nova and Astra are sheds. Rarity does not guarantee cult status, otherwise we would all be stashing away Renault Fuegos.

Are you 11?
