Mates younger cousin had an evo, few years back I asked what it was worth he said 30 I said what £3k nah 30k , looked like a boy racer thing. Crazy money they said on radio this week second hand cars had gone up massively, due to import delays lack of supply and spare cash being saved during covid

That's also a lot to do with people moving out of cities and working from home makes location less important, there was also a waver on stamp duty, and to top it off interest rates remain low, ownership is at its lowest for some time and lower than most of Europe, building material shortages have also scuppered new build progress. Going to be a few Europeans selling up and heading back making maybe 30% on a property they might have owned for a couple of years. I think the market will improve next year , slight increase in interest rates, more houses being built, if market drop back to precovid they'll be a lot of folks in negative equity for sure....
