  • If you buy the right car you can own it for a few years, enjoy it then sell it for what you paid for it. You might even make a small profit. So first in my series of depreciation free cars - the Alfa Romeo 4C.

    Theres actually 4 modes, if you go into D and then press and hold you go into RACE mode, it turns every aid off and its truly raw and you are on your own with no help

    Other cars: how about TVRs? I was able to upgrade from a Chimaera to a Tuscan because my Chimaera had appreciated during my ownership as well as refurbishing various parts. It made the jump manageable for me.
    Love the 4C and the great video! Just the right length and quantity of content. Looking forward to the next one.

    Honda s2000. Bought an 08 in 2018 for 16k and sold it in 2023 for 22k. Put about 5000 miles on it. Broke even when factoring in servicing, fuel and ins. costs. Selling in May was key being a predominantly summer car.

    You’re more than welcome to feature my Focus RS - hasn’t lost any money at all in the 4 years I’ve owned it!

    I love the 4C! I wanted one since they were announced.
    Regarding the depreciation-free car, I had one - a Lada Niva 😂
    Even made a bit of money when I sold it. Mine had LPG so fuel cost was like with a normal hatchback but otherwise they can swallow 20 liters.

    Acquired my 2018 4C in 2020 with 1200 miles…even with the increase in prices during Covid, I could easy sell my 4C for a profit right now. But…no way I am selling her.

    I think the 911 997.1 has more or less hit rock bottom. Well documented issues have usually been sorted by now and there’s a huge leap in price if you want a 997.2.

    These cars are extremely sensitive to tire pressure. 26 lbs front and 29 lbs rear. More pressure makes the car very twitchy. Try these factory-specified pressures before you do any modifications

      Or it could be that the ignition was on but the car wasnt started..... so those lights come on automatically and then go off when car starts

      The only way is up for Impreza. Not. Even STI, even wrx are on the way up. It’s pretty much the last of the jap to go sky high. I’ll hold on to my 03 blob a while longer I think!

    Depreciation free only because of the Covid car boom. Prices have started to come down again now so may not be as easy to get your money back now
