Because like any other old car, they are either being scrapped or bought by enthusiasts who prefer to keep them.

yeah, getting harder to find decent ones it seems. soon enough the more desirable e30's will price the enthusiasts out of the market and it will be only collectors who can afford them. Sad IMO

look at the prices of rs500's now, m3 evo's, etc etc

Decline was a few years back. At least good one's will be worth more :D

You know well enough mate, when they are fucked, they are fucked.
How do you pronounce 'either'? I say 'either', but some say 'either'. Either is correct.

Cabs are not fetching much, at least if my auction is anything to go by. Asking prices are definetly on the rise. Selling prices is a different mater altogether though.

Tin tops in good condition with provenance and service history are definetly getting far more expensive.
