HERE ARE OUR TOP 10 USED CARS IN AUSTRALIA THAT SEEM TO HAVE AVOIDED THE COVID TAX – FOR NOW. IS THIS LOT THE NEXT BATCH OF BOLTERS?

NOBODY CAN PREDICT the future, but never fear, folks, because that doesn’t stop speculator­s wondering which model to put their hard-earned in, especially as the classic Aussie family car of the ’60s and ’70s is fast becoming a pipedream.

Here are 10 affordable classics currently snoozing in the classified­s that might just take off. Fair warning first, though. Ensure specialist servicing and care has been consistent­ly undertaken before taking the plunge. The prices we’re quoting here are for registered and road-worthy examples rather than restoratio­n projects or online scams. And – as the whole point of this exercise – please keep in mind these prices won’t last. That’s if we’re correct, of course!
