Future classic - 155
I haven't seen a thread so apologies if you've already picked up on this but did you see the small article in October Classic & Sports Car citing the 155 as a future classic? Cheap now, buy while you can, lots of rubbish but some minters for not a lot of money.
Cheers, welcome to the classic ranks chaps!

Clearly a man of impeccable taste, unfettered foresight and a mischievous setter of guess the car features.
less of the big words, i have to go google them
oh how true!
when i first seen the car, i really was not sure about the shape!
(when my mate first bought it! and i was in a golf gti mkIV)
but over time i developed a passion for it while it was still his!
then when he decided he wanted a 156 2.5v6 i jumped at the chance of owning it!
now am the proud owner of a beautiful 155 2.0TS 16v widebody!

They'll certainly be a classic but limited imho, I'm not convinced they'll gain "full" classic status like Spiders for example. but, they will have a strong, but small, following....kinda like 75s.
I love 'em

The 155 is a great, and terribly underrated, car
AR will kill it, don't worry.
Some parts now are starting to become unavailable. I had a front n/s brake pipe on back-order for a year... and there's only 2 wheel-arch liners in the country.
It can't be too much to stock a few parts, can it?

Guess I need to start a business selling 155 parts which I'll get from breakers in and around Naples then...
