Why the Range Rover 2 door has become the fastest growing classic of recent times
With so much press about the early Range Rover 2 door's, we are very, very pleased to have a significant stock of these vehicles, which are now being readied for sale (all purchased prior to the boom).
First there was the value rise. Next was the front page of Octane Magazine in December. Then there was the announcement by Jaguar Rover that they would sell "new" (restored) Range Rovers for $220,000 (£135,000). Now, there are all of the "Wanted" advertisements for Range Rovers everywhere. Finally, here is one of the first the mini movie's about the first SUV to come to market, in 1970. Values will of course go ballistic, as we predicted.

Range Rover 2 doors being built new, for $220,000 (£135,000)
Range Rover 2 door values are about to go ballistic, now that Jaguar/Rover have announced that they are building 10 new vehicles, using original base vehicle's, that they are restoring.
This concept is gaining more and more momentum, and continue's the similar trend begun by Jaguar with the 'New" E-Type's built in 2014 from existing chassis's, which are incredibly valuable now.
Clearly top condition original and restored models will now attract serious money. Thankfully, we purchased loads of them !.

Toyota MR2 SW20 finally starting to rise.
As all things Classic and Modern Classic rise rapidly, it is now the MR2's turn.
We purchased as many Toyota MR2's as we could last year (and 2015), although maybe we should have acquired more. It is now too late !!.
Even though this car has high kms, the price is appropriate for the new economy, especially as it is a truly beautiful car.
How right they were !........ This report from 12 months ago made perfect predictions of growth
Paul Michaels from Hexagon Classics assisted in these predictions one year ago, and was spot on.
The year of 2016 started very slowly, as the flattened market from 2015 continued. However, as August and September dawned, it all changed, and auction prices as well as retail rose steadily, especially in Australia.
The Japanese Classic Car Show in the U.S.A last year was a big success. Let's see why.
With Japanese Modern Classics now getting attention, this show held last year is a great indicator
