A pair of really smart English shotguns never going to drop in price and very handy if there is a revolution!

Here we are Clive - 5 for £150k!
A rough, second-hand Baikal bought for £65 won't devalue, either... and with be just as much use during your revolutionA pair of really smart English shotguns never going to drop in price and very handy if there is a revolution!
What about classic cars? Or cars that will become classics. Could even use it on the weekend then. I don't know what to recommend. But I imagine it can be done with reasonable success. Aston martin, Bentley maybe.
Historically the best physical asset return bar none I believe if you buy the right things
Classic bike market seems to be topping out, well it seem's to be crazy money now, luckily i got in and got some when they were cheapish
That's like saying lottery tickets are a great investment if you pick the right numbers
Recently the likes of Clio V6, M3 CSL, 996 turbo, Ferrari 355/360 and Gallardos have seen decent increases. I guess the key is desirability with the slightly rare factor
Local car garage deals in prestige an classic cars. They've a 996 turbo in. Up for £59995. Bet that's a lot more than it was bought for second hand a few years ago. Wouldn't know new price on it back then.That's like saying lottery tickets are a great investment if you pick the right numbers

And if they loose job , divorce etc , your up the creek , I've been there many times and heard most of the tenant excuses , mate has a doctor n one of his , she hasn't paid rent in 8 months ,my best tenant was a guy I never heard from for 4 years he just paid the rent, even did work on the property , then police interviewed me for drugs farming , it had been run as a canabis farm , they never caught guy , had given a fake name , and had been paying money into bank monthly as cash , but appeared on our statement as a deposit so never thought. , then it was hookers , and that was the good properties ,House letting still good in my opinion. Its a question of simple maths and getting balance right, last house I bought, and lived in for a while was let to young couple desperate to stay in village where house prices are too dear, its let 150 under its value, they are in for minimum of 5 years, so no redecorating costs, no letting fees, no commission, grateful tenants that pay/do some work themselves if needs be. Not lucky, just give them a deal that they wouldn't get elsewhere, if your in it long term easily reaps the benefits in my opinion. And saves a lot of grief and phone calls, that's the way I do it anyway and suits me. Land surely peaked, cant see it going up at all after we put in motion leaving eu?
I would invest it in my business.
If that's not in the spirit of the game... I'd buy a complete but horrible Series 1 E-Type Jaguar and give it a cosmetic restoration.
