A study by confused.com has revealed the world s greatest classic cars as well the best classic cars to invest in and the most popular classic cars around the world. The study compared 200 classic cars on factors such as value rarity and popularity. The top-ranked car overall was the Lamborghini Miura. The Miura faired well across the board scoring particularly highly for its value increase having doubled in worth over the last three years and by over 1 500% since launching. It s no surprise that so many Ferraris populate the list of greatest classic cars but the highest-ranking vehicle from the Italian automakers was the F40. The popularity of the Ferrari is still apparent to this day with the F40 being amongst the most searched classic cars (with over 4 million searches). Alongside this its estimated value has also grown by 100% in the last three years hence why it scored so well. Another Ferrari took third place the Ferrari 250 GTO. The 250 GTO is extremely rare with just 36 being made with each original buyer being personally approved by Enzo Ferrari. This rarity has made the car extremely desirable for collectors and sales have repeatedly broken price records. The current valuation is estimated at over £ 50 million far more than any other classic car with the 250 GT also scoring highly for its rarity. Further insights from the study include: The classic car with the highest return on investment is the Ferrari F355. The car s value has grown by 214% since launched in 1994. The most popular classic car is the Nissan Skyline GT-R which saw 8.21 million searches in the last year. The most popular classic car on social media is the Lamborghini Diablo with over 150 000 posts on Instagram and 14.6 billion views on TikTok.
