Collectible Cars outstrip property yet again.
It has happened again.
As this great News Item from The Australian newspaper says "At the premium end of the collectible car market, prices are running at almost twice the national average property price of $550,000".
We are very, very clearly well into a boom scenario here in Australia, and so now is the time to invest in exactly the correct Collectible Car, that ticks all of the 58 requirements that include make, model, trim, colour, trim and transmission option etc, etc.
As all of our Investors know, many, many Porsche's rise and then fall, as they become overpriced. The 930 Turbo was a great example, as we were purchasing the car known as "The Widowmaker" for $45-75,000 in 2016, before they rose to an eye-watering $600,000 in Australia. Now anyone can purchase a great 930 for $220,000 (Unless it is an unmolested '76/'77 3 Litre).............a loss of almost $400,000 !. That is why we never hold Porsche's for very long. There would be a few Widows around that may do the job that the car was famed for !.
Esprit's hit the $200,000 mark.

We began purchasing Esprit's a few years back for not much, and now look at their values. ALL of our other cars have done exactly the same thing. Get in now before Collectible Car become like Australian property !.

A real bargain of a Porsche 356A.
Yes, the recent Shannons auction yielded this stellar purchase for just $230,000
Some people love Porsche 356's and especially the 1600 c.c Cabriolet A derivation.
This car had lived under a Brisbane church since 1995, and so is really more of a Church Find than a Barn Find.
Whilst it still features the illustrious VW Beetle 1600 engine, this one does have the redeeming feature of being one of the rarer cars that came with the genuine Karmann roof and Rudge wheels.

"Many have doubled or tripled in value"...............in today's AFR FINANCIAL REVIEW
Why did we invest so heavily in Japanese Classics 24 months ago ?.
Why did we love S Cargo's, Beat's, Figaro's, Cappuccino's. MZ-1's, Pau's, although not B-1's or Sera's ?
Because we knew that certain makes and models were about to explode in value, and so acquiring Supra's, S15's. MR2's, 3000GTO's and R34's for under $8,000 each made very good sense.
Call now to find out what will explode in value over the next 6 months, NOW that these cars have stopped growing.
