No point in listing a bunch of £250K+ cars, that are already collector's items.
Before you forget back (as many on here were not around then) in the late 1980's Ferrari 288 GTO's were fetching a million pounds, and Aston Vantages were getting silly money, people were paying 30-50K (when 30K was a lot of money) over book for new 911's the market collapsed in the early 90's. 288 GTO could be had for sub 200K a few years later, classic Astons were being almost given away, 911 prices dropped like a rock.
People back then thought wrongly the market only went one direction, and they were very wrong.
XJ220 which many thought was a massive investment was another car people paid over book and were stuck with, and over the decades your money would have been placed in better investments.
When you have significant rises as seen over the last few years, get ready for significant drops at some point also.
Then factor in regulation in the law, insurance factors, getting parts, fuel. Some of these older cars could end up never being on the road.
People will always pay silly money for classic Ferraris but its a limited market the Billionaire market, and there are no cheap cars to make a million on these days. It would have been nice going back to the 1960 to buy some Ferraris to sell now, but the same could be said for wine, shares, houses...etc
