The classic cars from the ‘70s and ‘80s you want to save from extinction the most
Lamborghini Murcielago LP670-4 SV – 1.19.0
The LP670-4 Sport Veloce was the ultimate version of Lamborghini’s stunning Murcielago supercar with the V12 engine tweaked to 670hp, a lightweight exhaust system and carbonfibre all over the place. The Stig managed 1.19.0s in this 212mph beast, which is pretty good going.

I love supercars and I love Top Gear - but these extravagances are the last gasps in an era where super-rich who don't deserve to be, are wasting money they don't understand the real value of on obscene toys. These cars depreciate like a rock, such that they cost their owners tens - perhaps even hundreds - of thousands of pounds per year to sit on their drives. Take the Bently Continental GT - you can buy one two years old for £100,000 less than the new price, but even then you'd be mad to do so - you may be able to afford a £60,000 second-hand Bently, but you not being super-rich, you're still going to find it's 10.5 MPG and £5,000 servicing costs difficult to justify. Flash cars, from whichever financial point you look at them, don't make sence.
What a shame.
