So - story cut short, after paying a few small things off I'll be looking at a 'future classic' car to buy for around the 1-2k mark. Mostly for the enjoyment of maintenance and concourse-ing as well as using over the summer sunny weather.

Having owned a few Nova's and loving driving them I have been thinking of something along the lines of:

Corsa B sport
306 GTi6 / Rallye
Astra GSi
106 GTi or Ph1 Rallye

What do you guys reckon the next 'classic' cars will be? Planning on something absolutely 'mint' and totally standard (irregardless of how 'poverty' spec it is..)

So - any suggestions? Open to anything really - the short list above is just what comes to mind.

So many different cars going through my head at the moment!

As I said - open to looking at any cars really that I might think would be a future classic.

Going on from the e46 BMW - I've been looking at e36's too (I do have a soft spot for them!)
Another on the 'hot hatch' front was a Fiesta ST150 (mk6) but they seem to have already started to rocket in prices.

These are all interesting..

I do have a softspot for a BMW as my rally car is an E36 compact and I use a 520d on the road!

I was discussing this topic with a friend yesterday who reckoned the next 'ship to sail' will be the Cooper S Minis and things like that, he also mentioned stuff like the older shape ibiza cupra, St150 fiesta's etc.

It's hard to judge the future isn't it!!
