I am really looking forward to the day when all chavved up classics have finally been killed off and we are left with just the minters and tastefuly modded ones. Thank god the exchange rate has killed off the import business.

Nothing as I own one myself!

I'm saying that all the cheap imports have stopped coming from Japan now as they are no longer cheap due to the exchange rate.

Thereby, the number of Imprezas on our roads available for chavs to ruin is ever decreasing.

http://pistonheads.com/sales/2894735.htm

It was sold via pistonheads... to me!!

http://pistonheads.com/sales/2955549.htm

With the amount being scrapped / broken for bits the numbers of them will be dropping pretty quick! Preface lifts must be getting rare

Most chavs can afford a new age now so I don't think the problem will stop, you're always going to get people ruin good cars with crazy mods.

The factors against the classics being kept and maintained properly are pretty enormous now:

Fuel
Insurance
Rust
Head Gaskets/Bottom Ends
General ageing of parts
Low demand for them in the market

They're at the stage of throw away cars now. If someone pays £1500 for one and even if it just pops a head gasket, realistically its going to be broken up.

Yeah, just try finding a nice pre-facelift. Reckon I could count the number for sale on a hand or two in the whole country. Changed days.

Im in the same situation guys.

Trying to decide if a classic type R will be worth anything a few years down the line, with rising costs of running these cars.....will they really be worth anything at all????
