In 25 years time, dust off the old "personal computer", plug it into what's left of the "internet", do a search and resurrect this thread. Then we can all teleport to a "discussion chamber" with a perspex glass of "nutri-beer" and find out who was right, then groan when we find out the only true classic mentioned was the Citroen Berlingo.
and bang on about the good old days when you could get Petrol.

Will 15 years do? Props to the guy who picked out an S1 Escort Turbo, just checked and you would be looking at about £2500 in 2005

That was a nice trip down memory lane. I think I bought my Integra in 2007 for circa £5k fresh off the boat. I stuck it up for sale 3 years later at £4k. It was an absolute minter.

They're selling for £15-£20k now - so those in the thread that bet on that one called it just right. I'd have loved to have kept it, but at the time it wasn't a priority.

Fiesta Zetecs have their own race series, hardly makes thems a future classic

This one made me laugh as I now own two and the prices are flying up.


So many accurate guesses in this thread, interesting to look back on.

Some blasts from the pasts In this thread, Danny weren't far away from a full house.

The zafira was never going to make it, nor the 330 as its just too mass produced but all the others are quickly appreciating classics to be fair
