Good cars are definitely strong money at the moment, will they continue to rise as more are written off or broken for parts?

Will they become a £30k collectable in 10 years time?

No, because they are such a great car we're out driving them all the time - so in 10 years there aren't going to be any under 150K miles on the clock

Prices are going to climb, but there will be a gulf between reasonable ones and good ones. Another 5 years will make the bad ones dreadful and the good ones look incredible.

I know they are a great car, that's why I bought my second one, less than 3 months after selling my first one.

23k in 15 months in my first one and currently 7k in 6 months in this one I bought mine to be used and enjoyed.

Prices can still be 'high' even if it has a few miles and is a good car, supply and demand etc or will people just go for a cheap MX5 and tune it

What does a high mileage nsx go for these days?

I would also recommend buying one from someone off the forum as 9/10 the car has been looked after and you can read people's build threads to see what work the car has had etc also they are normally well looked after.
