Sometimes this sort of trite reportage leads to classic car owners loosing the run of themselves. Nonetheless they single out 5 cars that they reckon are on the upward curve, one being the Integrale. Don't sell quite yet guys, keep all those pseudo car investors on the long finger for a while longer!!

In ten years whilst houses prices have gone up on average by 27%......art by 183%.......classic cars top the lot by a massive 430%..............(Parisien takes out 24 carat gold snuff box for a big pinch!!!!).....Wink

And this is what you get when you combine classic cars and art:

How mad is that?

Could do with some more air in that front tyre. Might add another £2.50 to its value

$250k for the wrecked 308GT4! Surely someone is laughing their socks off!?
I'm now cancelling all my comprehensive cover - no need for more than third party fire and theft if the car is worth more crashed than straight!
