Top 4 Classic Cars to Invest in in 2018
Are you a collector or someone who loves owning or investing in classic cars? If not yet, it’s perhaps now the time to get into this lucrative and fun way of investing. Even though investing in classic cars or ‘golden oldies’ if you like is not a new practice, the markets change rapidly.
We’ve seen a systematic rise of cars from the 80s and 90s starting to gain traction more recently, and you’ll find that some investors would perhaps buy a Renaultsport Megane R26.R as an investment. In this post we discuss some other hot pics for this year.
1. Lotus Elan +2
Perhaps not the first choice of most collectors and investors, but a pretty good one still. The Lotus Elan +2 is a bit bulkier than the sporty two-seater model, but still has loads to offer. You also won’t pay an arm and a leg when you find one, making it numero uno in our books.
2. Land Rover Minerva
Landy’s are pretty up there when it comes to pricing and classics to invest in. But, if you manage to find a Minerva, it would be best to grab it immediately. There are still a couple of them doing the rounds, as a limited amount was produced in Belgium for the Belgian army. Perhaps not a ride you’ll want on chilly days, but perfect for a collector who would want to go wandering on a summer’s day at the beach.
3. Buick Riviera
The Buick Riviera is considered to be one of the most beautiful cars built on American soil. If you don’t already own one, perhaps now is a good time to find one. These classic beauties can be found at very affordable prices if you know where to look. It might not be in tip top shape, but if you have the cash you can restore her easily.
4. Lancia Aprilia
A choice for a true collector and investor. The Lancia Aprilia remains one of the most advanced models of its time. The car was in production between 1937-1949 and considered one of the few pioneers of its time. It was one of the first vehicles to feature hydraulic brakes, all-independent suspension and unitary construction.
Anyone can invest in classic cars, as you can see from our list. The beauty of investing in classic cars is the fact that their value increases exponentially very quickly. And if not getting one for an investment, perhaps get one of the cars we’ve mentioned just for kicks! Need some convincing or more info on investing in classics?
