Just watched the Wheeler Dealers 308 GT4 episodes and thought "hey, £13k, i can afford that."

Had a quick look and they are all £30k..

Why have they appreciated in over double value in just 2 years?

Perhaps because you don't know what you're looking at ?

Most of the 4 seat GT4s in the classified are around £ 20 whereas the more desirable 2 seat GTS/GTB is around £ 30

Also bear in mind that episode was filmed 3+ years ago, but yes, older Ferrari are definitely on the "up" curve at the moment (at least until Italy goes bust and no more parts can be bought wink )

Still plenty of rough cars around for less than £15k. If you go to look at any, take a magnet and a screwdriver to find out how much rust you'll need to chop out, as pre mid 80's Ferraris didnt have a great deal of rustproofing and putting the body right is a tad expensive and time consuming smile

Decent/good Mondials 8 or QV are within your budget
