Models as investments?

Firstly, I’ve started visiting this thread as reading up on, and looking on at the models on here is like a soothing stress relieving balm in these crazy times. There are some stunningly skilled people here.

I don’t want to offend anyone with my topic. I’ve fallen in love with this stunning weathered limited edition Porsche 917 model from the amalgam collection (hopefully not a limited edition of ‘as many as we can sell’).

Now, if my wife finds out I’ve spend £1k on a model she will freak out. But if I can make an argument it’s an investment that can be part of my pension then that’s prob ok with just a few nights sleeping in the shed. But I wondered if these type of models are collectible and do go up in value?

All sage advice. I think I’ll pass on the model as I can’t justify the money as a decorative object.

But interesting as to whether these ever move in value - apart from down.
