    I will never sell mine as i love the car and there is nothing else that can touch the enjoyment i get from it so the value is irrelevant for me apart from having the correct insurance cover.

        I have owned mine for 20odd years and when i bought it was my dream car, i have come really close a 2 occasions but pulled out at the last minute and really glad i did, i will never sell now, cannot wait to get it back up and running. I can only see the values rising TBH. Supply and demand.

          The entire car market is cyclical. Whilst rates are low, investors look for other ways of earning and hence cars, art, gold etc go up in value. As interest rates rise the big investors will sell their high value cars to invest their money and this causes the market to drop throughout .It happens every 15-20 years or so and it will happen again. In my opinion, now's a good time for investors to get out of the market but like all investments, don't be in for more than you can afford to lose. Then again, if I'm wrong and they keep going up at the rate they are and you do sell up, then can you afford to buy back in, in a couple of years time? It's all a gamble. Luckily mines not an investment so I don't need to think about these things.

            Don't really get the Lambo thing !.....nice enough for some I suppose but wait until the clutch goes, then you'll be sorry
            .....or worse, knew a fella with a Gallardo that spat half its engine out the exhaust ! Took the value of a Cosworth to put it right !!

                just get an advert up if you want to sell it,its far easier than hinting that it may be available or are you scared to name a price?

                    I'm going to use mine next year, then i'll see how the land lies. We want to move house and it's a nice amount to use rather than having more on mortgage.

                              The problem with lhd cosworths is where they come from mostly it's acceptable to be a bit ropey ,there's gonna be yanks buying them crying in they're cinnamon Grahams when a polished wreck that's done 3 Laps of the Speedo turns up and they wished they bought a decent one.
                              ​​​For that reason I'm not gonna sell mine for the ssme price as a wreck ,the editor of fast ford wants to stick it in so then I'd sell it

                                The escos was one of two cars I wanted as a youngster, the other one was an F40 and can’t ever see me getting one of those anytime soon.. I have already sold my escos once which was a huge mistake as it was sold to fund a wedding that never happened.. luckily I was able to buy it back some time later but it’s back none the less... the only way I’ll part with it now is if I really really have to.. hard to know what will happen with them price wise in the short term, long term once the Uk finally leaves the EU that could have a bearing on prices who knows... I can’t see many been exported after this happens as importing one to a EU country could sky rocket... I hope to keep hold of mine until I’m an old man as there’s nothing else out there in the same price bracket that could replace it for me...
