Honda NSX, Honda S2000, Honda Quint Integra Type R (NOT the Type S sold with Type R badges in USA), Nissan Skyline GT-R, Eunos MX-5 (sold in USA as Mazda Miata), first-generation RX-7, Mitsubishi Lancer Evo, Subaru impreza WRX STi Type RA, Vauxhall (Opel) Carlton ...VW Transporter (Split, Bays & Vanagons). Can't think offhand of any other Eurocars which will be collectable or restored ( Ford? Peugeot/Citroen? Renault? Volvo? Saab? Jaguar?
