Daniel has been passionate and very knowledgeable about cars ever since. Discover everything you need to know today so you can make money and enjoy your passion about cars at the same time. 

Mark and Daniel dive deep on the technical stuff--aside from giving financial advice—from learning about what to inspect when looking for cars worth investing to learning about the car market, there’s a lot to learn on this episode. 

KEY TAKEAWAYS 

• The classic car market, since early 2000s, have slowly fell down. Cars right now have become electronic- or technology- heavy.  
• Putting it in in a bank is also a risk. So, if you’re in a good position with your investment portfolio, it’s okay to put those extra cash on a new car. At least, a classic car’s value grows through time and it’s something you can enjoy at the same time. 
• How do you make sure you’re buying a high-value car? Do visual and mechanical inspection. And, brands are all the same so it shouldn’t be your first basis. 

• According to him, the best car is a Mercedes-Benz AMG SL 65 MG V12 (R230). He bought his own of the same model with just £7,000, and it was worth it. 
• They’re looking on putting more left-handed driven cars because there is a larger demand for them. 

BEST MOMENTS   

• "Definitely, for the last 10 years, you can say that money has never been cheaper.” 
• “Look at cars that are off the radar.” 

• “You got to love what you buy.” 
• “It’s important that you buy a car that’s been restored by the right company.”
