We are entering what will be a momentous change in cars, from ICE to leccy. Inevitably that will lead to a post changeover strong market in so called classic ICE cars of the last interations. At the same time, classic car buffs tend to go for the cars of their youth whicvh is why cars of the 60 to millenium are often worth more than cars of the 30's 40's and certainly of the 1900 to 1920 era .

So if you were going to leave to your offspring a recent or new car which when hoarded by them would be a pretty good investment, what car would it be? Needs to be relaively small production, a bit special or iconic, usually a bit sporty. Bit like you might put down a case of some plonk that you know is going to be worth a forune in 50 years time. And dont say Morgan because few if any of them over the last century have attained any sort of collectors value however much you might love yours.

I have a very poor track record in chosing future classics but my vote would be an Elise, preferably one with competition history. But I am struggling to think of what might be the modern equivalent of the 1970s Ferrari 250 that sold then for 50k and is now in the millions
