Yes Nick, I had a 2006 Cayman and I agree, they are such a fun car and not so over priced, that one worries about the kms added on the odo, or just driving the limits. Some good cars seem to reach a ceiling and stay around there. Early MG T series, Alfa 105s, Lancias, some early Mercs, and so on. They creep along in value but don't seem to have the average trend line of early Porsches . Maybe it's a numbers thing.

and me back to 105 Alfas Hugh a 1750 series 2 is a greta car in my opinion and not expensive even the restored ones

Yes, early BMWs are still amazingly good value. E28 M5 has finally started moving up in price, but most of the others are still a bargain.

Yes Clyde,

Probably one of the best cars I have ever owned. Sold it to my son after 4 years and he had it for 6 years. High geared and supple handling.

Maybe there is a new thread here.
"ones that slipped away?"

Maybe the thread is: where will you go when the fun is finally priced out of the air-cooled Porsche market!!!

Goodness gracious.

Any of the 3 earliest Lancias on Carsales would suit me, especially the Fulvia Zagato.

My first car was a Alfa 1750 Berlina and I still have "own a GiuliaSuper" on my bucketlist - along with "yellow Ferrari" - 360s look great value at the moment.

Wow . . . the half a million dollar 2.4S. Who would have thunk it a couple of years ago?!

One of the reasons I didn't buy Mitchell's project S was the thought that at the end of the resto I'd be too bloody scared to drive it because it would be too valuable…….sobering thought and I guess its the driver vs collector mentality.

Even my old ST made me think twice about binning it on the race track as I wouldn't have been able to replace it in a hurry…..guys that race their '64's and '65's are very brave IMHO!!

I think when you are appraising the expected selling price of this car you need to remember it has provenence and association to Richard Hamilton who owned it for 3 decades from new before it passed to his son. He was the supposed founder of pop art so it will be highly sought by a wide spectrum of investors /collectors and may make double what it would normally make frp that reason alone.
