                Will an E31 BMW 850i become a collectable? Is it a good investment to buy now?

                        Fabulous cruisers. Things got a bit more interesting when the manual gearbox and M-technic suspension were offered, but it perhaps never quite made it to the status of a proper driver's car. The CSi version is already in demand, with last year seeing some very high prices for them. This could be driven perhaps by BMW re-launching model and/or younger buyers coming to market. We'd always advocate buying a car because you like it - rather than as an investment.

    I have a 2008 Audi TT Roadster with lots of factory fitted extras, including remote key fob roof up/down. Should I sell it or keep it in case it becomes a classic?
    
    
         
    
    What cars would you recommend as possible future classics? They must be automatic and reasonable to maintain.
    
    
         
    
    My son has a Renault Avantime in RHD. Apparently you are more likely to see Lord Lucan than one of these. Is it worth storing in case it becomes a more valuable classic?
