In recent years investment in classic cars has grown exponentially. It is not something that surprises us since as professionals we have felt that rise in the market. The data more than certify it, up to a 289% increase in a stage that had its greatest rebound in the 80s.

And it is that investors already see an almost certain value in the classic vehicle market. Beyond jewelry, coins or other collectibles. In this sector, the emotional and sentimental value of each model with its buyer is also implied, which greatly accentuates the valuation of many models and it was design by auto for trade.

The most important companies also bet on their classic models

PoloStorico is the name that from the well-known Lamborghini they call their department of restoration of classics. Thanks to this initiative, it is much easier to locate old parts or relevant information for model appraisal. Other companies such as Mercedes-Benz or Ferrari have followed these steps. All support for this market that they themselves, as first-hand professionals, see growing day by day.

Among the most sought after models are currently Jaguar (XKSS, XK120), Ferrari, Aston Martin or Mercedes-Benz X196 Grand Prix from 1953. Although as we mentioned earlier, the historical and affective factor of certain copies is essential. Vehicles that have belonged to a public figure, a famous person or a significant stage, will always see their value increased.

The condition of the vehicle, restoration as an investment

They are called 'restmods' and by this we mean the most classic copies, from the 50s and 60s, already restored. They maintain their traditional appearance on the outside but keep all the guarantees and innovation inside. This system is the preferred one on the American market and makes these cars unique but also functional parts.

That revaluation of which we talk so much depends to a large extent on the state of each car. The brand, body or the frequency of the model are some data to take into account. Even so, a classic in perfect condition will always have a higher price.
