Wheeler Dealers: Season 4 (2006)

Let us not fool ourselves, the old Porsche 911 was always going to be the one that shot up in value. However, we were not quite expecting a near £30,000 rise in value. Although, whoever bought one for the £5,000 Mike spent back in 2006 and kept it will certainly be laughing all the way to the bank.

Going against the norm for this article is the Lexus LS400, which has actually gone down in value. Some would argue that is understandable given the LS400's drinking problem and slightly awkward appearance. On the flip side, if you want a luxury vehicle with a thumping V8, then this car represents excellent value.

Mike managed to pick up the stunning BMW 635CSi for £2,000 during this season. The £5,000 rise in value may be a hard pill to swallow, but it is a small price to pay for a car boasting a timeless design.
