Only those who were born in the late 60's and early '70's I fancy, they are all approaching middle age (whatever that is?) and have some disposable income to spend.

Looking for the next 'classic' is easy really isn't it?

So what are the current crop of pimply yoofs into and which will become the must have cars in 40 years time?
