When classic cars are advertised for sale ones that have ultra-low mileage and good provenance always command a massive premium. You have a very rare car there and in 20 years time it may be the best one of its kind left. If you've somewhere to keep it indoors and use it rarely, I’d bet that it will be very desirable to collectors and could be worth a lot. Similar to how E39 BMWs are now.
Yes, all good points. There are easier things to make money on than cars! And money in 20 years is not worth much today, “jam today” and all that. The ideal scenario must be to own and really enjoy a car and then it still ends up worth more than paid for it. Almost impossible to predict...The only thing with that is unless the car increases in price a lot (say E30 M3 or Ferrari 360), if you said a grand a year to insure and service it etc. then after 20 years, you have to take that cost away.
Not saying it won't make money but it's a bit of a gamble and I wonder what the new dawn of spark-powered motors will do to ICE cars, regardless of model.
