Remember that knackered Mk2 Ford Escort you traded back in 1982 for ￡50 and a Duran Duran cassette? It would be worth ￡25,000 today in good condition. A restored 1970 Mini Cooper S? Try ￡40,000. Nostalgia and enthusiasts' growing disillusionment with today's techheavy and arguably less charismatic cars have caused prices to surge for models that until recently were easily accessible and often unremarkable. So, what's the appeal? Depending on your age or experience, it might be a case of returning to a known quantity. While electric powertrains, active safety systems and vehicle-to-X connectivity are crucial components in the global automotive industry's journey to a future that's free of pollution and accidents, their advent is seen by some as no less than the death of the automobile. What was wrong with crossply tyres, drum brakes and unassisted steering? For them, nothing - and there's a lot to be said for the authenticity of a purely analogue driving experience. But technology has moved on (for the better in terms of safety), so even the purest, most stripped-back new cars on the market are like spaceships compared with their equivalents from 40,30 or even 20 years ago.
