Current Car Most Likely To Become Collectible

the particular soft top in USA was unique. Although you could order the parts via your dealer anywhere to fit one, it would prove expensive.
The safety devices roll cage was also something that could be ordered from the UK, but not offered on rest of world vehicles, not even on the station wagon.
There was at one time a soft top offered via Land Rover France which had a pram type folding top.
currently the SVX soft top is available worldwide.
Prices in the USA will maintain purely due to the fact after I think 98, it was illegal to import them due to no airbag/emissions/no crumple zone etc etc.
I have had a 90 Pickup, and a 90 Station Wagon. Miss them, but living in the desert now and the a/c is not effective and the leak like a sieve so sand would ingress everywhere.
The V8 has not been sold other than in the USA for many year, rest of world has been diesel. TDI200, TDI300, TD5 and now the Puma 2.4 Ford derived Diesel.

I might have to agree with this, I mean how many of these do you see even in the wealthiest places? I don't think I've ever seen one in person, and I've seen a lot in person.

So not going to be a collector.

Really? Because I've been to Dubai, and Monoco with my dad for business, and I don't think I saw one at either.
