Modern Classics is looking for a standard E55 W211 for an investment-led feature, to be shot in the next month or so.
Does anyone know someone with one?
Dealers have said no so far/sold the cars available.

I struggle to understand the point of investment features at the moment. Do market "experts" sincerely believe that values are going to continue to rise?

I suggest the market has peaked and values will drop for the next 2 years and then stay flat a while. So, to my mind, anything bought now would have to be looked at as a very long term investment.

That’s the way we look at it - our investment pieces are looked at over five years rather than spikes. Other mags may do it differently. Spikes cannot be predicted unless it’s something like an Audi RS2/Alfa SZ and the whole 25-year American rule for cars not homologated for the US when they were new.
The E55 has several factors that point to long term rises.
