Investing in the future is one thing that’s recommended to everyone. Yet unbeknown to most, fulfilling this goal isn’t just a matter of upping your pension contributions. Neither is it saving a huge deposit to invest in a buy-to-let property.
If you have a passion for classic cars, why not indulge it and realise an investment opportunity like no other? Classic cars after all aren’t just beautiful and elegant, they make great investment pieces thanks to their collectible status.

The Fiat 500 has seen something of a revival in recent years but it’s the older version that’s causing the biggest stir on the investment scene. This Italian icon simply oozes charm and style, and for a modest outlay you can expect a reasonable return on investment in just a few short years.
First seen in the mid-70s, the Jaguar XJS was and still is a seamless blend of sport and style. These days, it’s a great investment piece. When purchasing your own Jaguar XJS, be sure to check out that engine and look out for rust.
The Alfa Romeo Spider may be a bit on the pricey side, yet those investing now will find that their investment and so much more will be returned. There are a range of classic Alfa Spiders to choose from meaning whatever your investment budget, you’re certain to find a worthy asset that’ll pay dividends in the long run.
We couldn’t mention classic investments without including a Porsche. The 1980s Porsche 944 is a great investment choice that’s already commanding high resale values. The manual model fetches a higher price than 944s with automatic transmission but both remain bestsellers.
The newest classic in our line-up, the Renault 5 GT Turbo was a favourite amongst boy racers in the early 90s and now makes an excellent investment piece. From 2019 to 2020, its value rose by an impressive 38.7%. This figure is only expected to creep higher as 90s cars become more and more desirable.
