Hagerty UK has released its 2025 Bull Market List. This is a list of ten cars that look like they will be good buys this year. Some of the cars listed are predicted to rise in value while others have been selected for their value for money and overall ownership experience.
The list is based on detailed research and market trends analysed by Hagerty’s valuation experts.
“The 2025 cohort is, I think, my favourite yet. The models span nearly every era of motoring and range from up-and-coming classics to those that were once top dog and now maybe offer a huge amount of car for the money.”
John Mayhead, editor of the Hagerty Price Guide
1. 2001-2005 Alfa Romeo 147 GTA
The Alfa Romeo 147 GTA takes the Hagerty Hot Hatch Pick for its understated looks and incredible performance. Values have risen steadily in recent years with the very best examples fetching well over £20,000.
The 147 GTA has a 3.2-litre six-cylinder Busso engine which is now considered to be one of the finest engines ever produced. This hot hatch continues to increase in popularity, with many younger buyers seeking it out in order to enjoy one of the best Alfa Romeo experiences.
What the Hagerty Valuation Team says:
The main reason the 147 GTA was chosen for this year’s Bull Market is that it offers an extraordinary driving experience for a relatively sensible price. It’s the spiritual successor to the 105 series Alfa Romeo GTA coupes that made such an impact on both road and racetrack back in the 1960s and ‘70s.
Hagerty Price Guide valuation – £8,500 to £20,500
2. 1959-1967 Austin-Healey 3000
The Austin-Healey 3000 is the Hagerty Bull Market Best of British Index Pick, a quintessentially British sports car, loved by multiple generations since it first entered production in 1959. One of the most popular big Healey models, it continued in production until 1967, with four major model variations during that time.
What the Hagerty Valuation Team says:
In value terms, the Austin-Healey 3000 has been very flat over a long period of time: since May 2015, UK Hagerty Price Guide values for an excellent example have varied by less than ten percent, and currently sit at £45,400, although it’s recently dipped. In real terms, accounting for inflation, that means the model is much more affordable than it was a few years ago.
Hagerty Price Guide valuation – £22,900 to £87,500
3. 1994-1999 Ferrari F355
This mid-90s Ferrari is a masterpiece of design and performance, with rising values reflecting its desirability. Expect to pay between £50,600 and £105,000 for this sought-after model.
What the Hagerty Valuation Team says:
Some consider the F355 to be a peak driver’s Ferrari, mixing 1980s-inspired design and analogue engineering. A relatively new addition to the UK Hagerty Price Guide, values have risen recently, up 6.2 per cent in the past three years to £73,300 for a standard Berlinetta in excellent condition. In the US, growth has been even more extreme, and the Guide price for the same model there is now $196,000 (£152,000) although this includes a 25 percent premium for manual gearbox examples.
Hagerty Price Guide valuation – £50,600 to £105,000
4. 1992-1998 Maserati Ghibli (AM336)
This Italian coupe, designed by Marcello Gandini, offers a range of price points and impressive performance with twin-turbocharged engines.
What the Hagerty Valuation Team says:
The attraction of the Maserati Ghibli model range is that there’s a car for many different price points. Standard, base Biturbos with middling miles are still for sale for under £10,000, a good Spyder is double that, all the way up to the Shamal, currently valued at £53,000 in excellent condition in the UK Hagerty Price Guide. Those with the cheapest price on the windscreen may be more expensive to maintain though, and for a 1980s/ 1990s-era Maserati, the bills may be significant.
Hagerty Price Guide valuation £9,400 to £54,900
5. 1991-2003 Peugeot 106
The Peugeot 106 has often been overshadowed by its sibling 1990s boy racer favourite, the Citroen Saxo. Produced between 1991-2003, the Hagerty Quirky Pick was available in anything from a very basic 1.0-litre petrol version to the entertaining GTi and Rallye variants.
Many people have a story to tell of their experience with a Peugeot 106, either as the car they learned to drive in, their first car or a rental that took them on holiday with their friends. It might be a small car, but it had a big personality with an interior that combined French quirkiness with practical simplicity. They were also easy to work on and many were the subject of extensive modifications, making pristine original examples increasingly sought after today.
What the Hagerty Valuation Team says:
Hagerty considers the Peugeot 106 to be great value compared with some of its rivals. The Series 1 106 Rallye in excellent condition is listed in the Hagerty Price Guide at £12,400, around 32 percent less than its older relative the Peugeot 205 Rallye. With their homologation credentials, limited numbers and instantly recognisable looks, they tick many of the requirements of a collectable car, although originality is critical.
Hagerty Price Guide valuation – £8,900 to £16,400
6. 1965-1969 Porsche 912
In the 1960s Porsche wanted a car that fitted between the 356 and the 911. That car was the 912, a sports car that had all the looks of the 911 and the same level of build quality and comfort, but at a much lower price. It was also cheaper to run, thanks in part to the use of the four-cylinder 616 engine from the 356.
Today the 912 is becoming more sought after, not just for its great value but because it is both dynamic and usable, with easier to manage handling and performance compared to the 911. Prices for the 912, which is the Hagerty 2025 Classic Pick, remain stable and are not expected to rise dramatically. The UK Hagerty Price Guide values excellent left-hand drive examples at £57,800 with right-hand drive models attracting a large premium.
What the Hagerty Valuation Team says:
With a Porsche 912 you get the early 911 experience for a fraction of the price. Other than very early 912s, the vast majority of the car is identical to its six-cylinder sibling, sharing the same interiors, bodywork, suspension and electrics, only the engine is different.
Hagerty Price Guide values – £26,900 to £90,100
7. 1994-2001 Range Rover P38
The Range Rover P38 arrived in 1994 as the successor to the original classic model.
The P38 was available with an updated version of the traditional Rover V8 or a turbo-diesel engine from BMW. The combination of luxury and legendary off-road capability made it a popular choice.
What the Hagerty Valuation Team says:
The P38 Range Rover is a car that is currently extremely affordable, with the cheapest runners advertised for under £1000 and even top-spec, limited edition models with extremely low mileage in concours condition rarely reaching over £15,000. Plus, they are getting rarer: social media groups are full of cars being broken for parts or heavily modified for off-road use. Find an original, well-maintained example, and it could offer a lot of value for money.
Hagerty Price Guide values – £800 to £15,800
8. 1977-1980 Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow II
Rolls-Royce introduced the Silver Shadow in 1965 but then it updated the model for the final few years of its life, creating the Silver Shadow II in 1977.
Values vary immensely but so too do the maintenance costs, making the Hagerty 2025 Luxury Pick one to choose carefully.
What the Hagerty Valuation Team says:
Prices for the Silver Shadow II have been relatively static, only £100 higher today for an excellent example than in December 2021. The big difference has been in the top examples, with a concours condition value up over 20 per cent during the same period to £31,900. This is a good sign as a rise in top examples often encourages more to be spent on maintaining other, less pristine cars
Hagerty Price Guide values – £5,700 to £28,700
9. 2000-2001 Subaru Impreza P1
The P1 was only available in Sonic Blue and its chassis and suspension were specifically tailored for British roads while ABS was added for the first time. Electrically adjustable Recaro seats sported the P1 logo, which also adorned the iconic rear wing. Compared to prices for the 22B, the P1 represents a great value way to get into a legendary rally-bred sports saloon.
What the Hagerty Valuation Team says:
Prices have risen a lot in the last few years – the UK Hagerty Price Guide ‘Excellent’ value was £32,000 in September 2022 and two years later was £50,500 but Hagerty believes that prices may well increase further still. Many of these cars have been driven hard, and the gulf between top and bottom values is huge: Hagerty’s ‘fair’ price is 61 percent lower than its top concours’value. Pristine, low mileage cars will probably increase most, but regularly driven cars that are a little rough around the edges will be much more affordable and great fun.
Hagerty Price Guide values – £25,000 to £72,500
10. 1994-2000 Toyota RAV4
The Toyota RAV4 is the model that started the modern era of compact crossovers and small SUVs. Introduced in 1994, over ten million have since been sold.
What the Hagerty Valuation Team says:
Legendary Toyota build quality, combined with an instantly recognisable design and very low current prices mean that Hagerty believes the RAV4 is a great entry-level classic, plus you’ll be welcome at any future edition of Hagerty’s Festival of the Unexceptional. Even in top GX spec, a Concours-ready example should set you back under £5,000 – if you can find one, these early cars are now very rare.
Hagerty Price Guide valuation – £600 to £5,100
