Interesting times for someone who’s cash rich and looking to start or add to their car collection. Once the prices drop will cars hang around allowing people with the cash to shop about or will cars then start to move quickly?


Oh and the word ‘actual’ seems to be defaulting to ‘actually’.

Doubt much will move quickly.

Actual issue should be fixed now. Forgot the update it from an earlier draft.

Good article SSO. As discussed previously it'll take a while for any pain to be felt but if you look at someone like tomhartleyjunior's sales of later he's shifted some decent expensive cars - now that means someone is selling them and why who knows.

Maybe this massive crash may never come, lets hope not :)

Well I hope my numbers come up on the euro millions tonight so I’ve got some time to sort out the massive storage area I’ll need for my car collection 8-)

It’s different when you’ve got £115 million in the bank.

there was a thread for it and the OP put a Volvo V60, an XKR and a Citroen Xantia. No joke.

Now you’re asking, it changes every day :lol: More recently though it’s proven that most things can be delivered and working from home works just fine so having a completely silly line up isn’t as impossible sounding as it used to be.

Mustang, GT40, Unimog

Or

Senna, GT40, F50

The more realistic “I’ve just won big on the lotto” list is much, much longer.

Really good article [mention]SSO[/mention] and your point about aging collectors and changing tastes was something I genuinely never considered. That’s a fascinating topic in its own right.

I wonder if there’s a couple of Ideas for articles there, one which looks at the “typical” classics for this current generation of owners and what cars may become the equivalent classics for the next generation?
Cheers,

Mike.

Do institutional investors have much part in the collectors market?
