The new and used vehicle retailer Bristol Street Motors has shared the most nostalgic first cars of the 1990s that could soon rise in value.

As they grow older, many best-selling models of the 90s have become much rarer, with the few remaining examples becoming collectors items.

A spokesperson for Bristol Street Motors noted that many motorists who passed their driving test during the decade are starting to feel nostalgic for the cars they once owned.

They explained: “The 90s marked a new wave of automotive innovation, focusing on practicality and reliability.

“The iconic sleek and curved exteriors replaced the boxy 80s cars, marking the advances in automotive design technology and the growing interest in aesthetics.”

Bristol Street Motors noted that one of the most nostalgic first cars of the 90s that is rising in value is the Vauxhall Corsa, sold between 1993 to 2000.

Replacing the Nova, the Corsa was one of the first models of the decade to feature curves and could be ordered with a wide range of engines.

Whilst it is still possible to get a late example for around £1,000, earlier examples with a low mileage and full service history can sell for over £5,000.

Another popular small car of the 1990s that is beginning to rise in value is the Peugeot 106, being one of the most-sold French cars of the decade.

Whilst the 106 was not quite as well-received as the Peugeot 205 it replaced, a series of unique special editions such as the Graduate and Roland Garos helped to make it desirable to a wide range of motorists.

Much like the Corsa, the most valuable Peugeot 106s are the original examples built before 1996, with high-performance examples such as the Rallye and GTI fetching upwards of £10,000.

Finally, Bristol Street Motors highlighted how the third-generation Ford Fiesta, built between 1989 and 1995, is also rising in value in its old age.

Another strong seller throughout the decade, the company noted that 22 percent of motorists claimed that a Fiesta was their first car.

Generally, classic Fords have a higher value than other makes, with clean examples of standard third-generation Fiestas reaching £7,500 and the high-performance XR2i fetching up to £15,000.
