Are classic cars now at a structural change in price level versus 10 years ago ?

What I mean is - is something like a Porsche 911 1985 going to stay over a minimum level of say £40k regardless if we have another downturn ?
Things like MGs, Audi Quattro, Honda Nsx, BMW 3.0cs ???

2nd discussion
Are advances in electric cars going to hurt the value of classic cars in 10 years time ?

If someone can open a straw poll ?

Brilliant well done and on my bucket list is also an 80a 911

I've always wanted an early 80's 911 and should have bought one years ago when they were affordable.

Following a recent bereavement, I thought to myself that life is way too short and then continued to sell pretty much everything I had in the garage and yesterday i finally bought a 1984 911. I'm collecting it next week.

I was concerned that I may miss my one opportunity to actually buy one of these cars as their values continue to rocket and the entry level will become unreachable.

Whilst I know I've bought at the most expensive time and it may come back to bite me in the arse, big bucket list tick for me and in my current mindset, you don't have long in this world so ... one happy man!

My old sl60 is now chargeable to enter central London congestion zone. That annoys the hell out of me frankly this country is becoming a tax and clamp down society.

I too think we have 20/25 yrs on classic cars but youngsters I think are missing tHe point about historic cars. The touch the smell the feel. I'm planning to own and drive as many NA beasts as I can gettbmy hands on in the next decade !

I agree f40s and some mega stuff might faulter in price if we do go in to decline in 18 months but I think lower value classics are now at a sustainable level. Apart from things like Audi Quattro at 40k that to me feels over the top ?

Will 911s from the 80s fall back on price or are they staying high. The young generation wouldn't know how to drive then with no onboard computers so probably would not want one?
