What do you think peeps?

All comments welcome.

For sure... even Mk1 Ford XR2's are now becoming classics... tbh i reckon the good ones are now starting to increase slightly in value once again, i've had mine nearly 3 years now and it's not lost a penny in value...

i think the b5 and b7 will, not sure about the new one

If the b7 is the last big-engined manual RS that will help classic status I imagine.

I wonder how long it'll be before there are no mainstream cars made with manuals and olde worlde clutches?

Huh?

Don't re-open the whole saloon vs. Avant vs. cabrio debate - they're ALL RS4's that's all that matters.

Except the Sprint Blue Saloons are faster, that's what you meant to say, of course

Sadly (and more so being a saloon owner) just the opposite is likely true - un-modified, low mile avants will start climbing in price, and probably soon. The saloon and cabrio aren't 'classic RS' enough, despite being arguably better cars. Apart from the cabrio.

Classic car known for carbon, and being owned by BM diesels, and knocking DRC

Don't quite agree - I think the avants and saloons will equally climb in price - it's also driven by what people want to buy - bread van or taxi.

For me, the saloon is classic RS enough. But I do agree that un-modified or 'sensible/reversible modded' examples will certainly climb...
