That said, i do know the prices of all secondhand cars are currently on the rise, my Jag has gone up in value by ~33% since i bought it 8 months ago, unexpected but nonetheless very welcome!

I'm thinking the opposite Dave, that large, thirsty oldish motor cars will become quite undesirable as people get poorer (an inevitable consequence of quantitative easing). I don't think there is any rush, I'll be able to buy a 740 project motor car for a monkey or there about in a year or two.
