Morning chums!

I am looking for an interesting classic and am looking for suggestions - budget £10-12k, some sort of small-ish or sports coupe maybe.
Preferably something that will maintain its value or appreciate over the course of a year or 2.

What sort of things flick my bean?
- Italian classic (Lancia, Alfa etc)
- British classic (lotus etc)

What is definitely not on my list:
- American boats
- Jap stuff
- Barges/sleepers
- Porsche


GO!

Thanks all - Plenty to think about there, A few that I'll tick off:
- M100 - not a good looking car, FWD, bad build quality, never liked them, and starting to fetch silly money for god-knows-what reason.
- TVR S - Had one, didnt really do it for me
- Chimaera (good chouce but..) - Had 2, not in the mood for one at the moment - I run the facebook page.
- XJS - Had one, prices have gone mental, paid £2k for one a few years back - bit of a barge really.
- 916 GTV - I certainly wouldnt be spending that much on one of those!!!!! Bit too new as well.


I do like the idea of a Fulvia, the interior on that Beta is.. special!!!

Rather sounds like you made your mind up before starting the topic. But just don’t want to post what it is you are interested in?
err..... go on, what had I decided on? I'm intrigued?


(you are wrong)

For that budget, I’d go for an mg midget with a K series...
I could build one for £4k.
