Define mega money though? You can still get them for sub £2k, which is not mega money by any stretch of the imagination.

Too late, prices have already gone through the roof over there.

Imports are demanding good money and will continue to do so. Mega miles rb5s are still being put out for strong money 2.5 to 3k. Is were I want to be the right car will surface it's just a waiting game.

£2.5/3k for a shed with rusty arches maybe, but if you want something worth keeping I think you're going to have to double your budget.

The days of clean tidy classic for £3k have gone mate.

For another 2+k am venturing into type r territory at the end of the day sellers can advertise a massive price tag but it's all down to what the buyer is willing to pay.
