More recently, our focus has inched towards top-tier acquisitions, vehicles like the Fund's Lamborghini Ultimae, Ferrari 812 Superfast and Ferrari F12 Berlinettas - cars with low kilometres, abroaderaudienceappeal,andwitha corresponding higher price point. Fundvehiclesatthispointerendhave also generated immediate sizeable returns from buying well and show significant future returns potential. But they have proven even more resilient to market volatility, by demonstrating the ability to up-hold
But the true potency of the Fund lies in its potential to not only preserve wealth over the short-term, but also generate substantial returns over a longer time horizon as Fund cars become increasingly scarcer. And this is why the Mach 1 Fund prioritises performanceovershort-termgains.

The collector car market has been anything but stagnant lately. It's been active, nuanced, and even a bit unpredictable. Results are mixed, with no cleardirection,butdon'tpumpthebrakes just yet! Top-tier cars are still thriving, it's the commuter cars that are floundering. Sale prices show that collectors are still willing to pay big bucks for exceptional cars. However, people are being more rational,evenforelitecars.Thisnewfound level-headednessisexpectedtocontinue.
Sure, the collector car market isn't as predictable as it once was, but that's not to say it's grinding to a halt. Buyers are becoming savvier about quality and models, making for a more nuanced market. Less predictable as the market may be, some of the age-old collecting trends hold true: global high-end marques(Ferrari,Lamborghini,MercedesBenz)haveheldtheirground.
Butnotallhigh-endmarquesarecreated equal. Some high-end marques soar in valuewhileotherscoast.
There are different ways to measure the valueofamarque.Ifyoulookatauctions, Ferrari has a clear lead. In the past 35 years, Ferrari has taken home the title of themostexpensivecarsoldpubliclymore than half the time, with only Mercedes comingclose,recentlyliftingthistitle.

Not many road cars look at home in a genuine factory racing workshop, but the Aston Martin Vantage GT8 manages to. At its heart it's a GTE race car made into a road-going version. Designed to be a true “drivers car”, the team at Aston Martin focused on its handling over raw power, giving the Vantage GT8 an intensity and agility born in the heat of competition. Sculpted from lightweight carbon fibre, shaped by the quest for ultimateaerodynamicefficiency,powered by a race-proven V8 engine, the Vantage GT8 captures the unalloyed thrills of competition to deliver a uniquely authentic sports car experience. And that'swhatmakesittheperfectcartopair withLuke.
Luke's professional journey began with some eye-opening encounters with individuals who epitomised the antithesis of integrity and honesty. Rather than allowing these experiences to derail his aspirations, he instead chose to make thesevaluesthecornerstoneofhiscareer.
For Luke, the automotive industry can sometimes stumble over these critical principles,asentimentweshare.Andthat iswhyLukewaseagertolendhissupport to the Fund. As he sees it, our desire to professionalise the space is an opportunity to uphold these essential values in anindustrythatoftenlacksthem.

AUTHENTIC AND UNASHAMEDLY EXTREME
Luke is reluctant to call himself a collector, even if he finds himself with more cars now than he has ever owned. After he shared his story about his first car,itresonatedwithmeasaV8madkid all grown up. "My first car was a Ford XB ute with a worked 302 Windsor V8, loud exhaust, wider tyres, and Radio Birdman stickersontherearwindow.Theultimate Gold Coast teenager's surf car. I've never admitted that publicly before but feel a weight off my shoulders having just owneduptoit!"
Aston Martin's business is building road cars, but racing is their soul. The Vantage GT8 is a true reflection of that, with an authentic & unapologetically extreme design inspired by their Le Mans racing programme. This car is equally at home on the street or the track, and it's a driver's dream machine in every sense of the word. With precision engineering and sleek styling, the Vantage GT8 is the ultimate ride for anyone who craves speed and power.

But, who amongst us hasn't had a carworthbeingembarrassedabout? Andthat'swhatmakescarcollecting sogreat.Theexperienceofcollecting ismorethanthecaritself,it'salsothe stories, discussions, and memories theyfoster.
AsLukeputsit,"Everycarisdifferent and achieves different things. I've been so lucky to drive an extraordinary range of cars and I love comparingthemallandfindingtheir strengths and weaknesses. Cars are such a cool thing, especially when shared."
And sharing is exactly what we aim with the Fund and the community we are building. It's also what Luke loves most about the invitation only Burrowstrackdaysheruns.
"Providing my community with experiences that they remember, respect, and share, that's what motivates me. Well, that and driving some of the best carsevercreatedonroadandtrack."
With so many shared passions, objectives, and values I knew how impactful Luke's contributions to the Fund would be, and he has not disappointed. After experiencing his track day, CHROME TEMPLE became sponsorsoftheBurrowsDays(normally only open to a limited closed list of guests) just so we could secure an invitationforourinvestors.
And as a Special Advisor to the Investment Committee, Luke is always pushingforsomethingrare,unique,and that has a great story; something you don'tseemanyof.
CHROMETEMPLE.COM CTiMACH1FUND P. 21
The mix of experts serving on the Investment Committee with various preferencesandknowledgeisoneof our greatest strengths. And it's always fun to learn about their personal preferences. For example, Luke's favourite personal car at the moment is his 1969 Volvo 144S, "It's old, slow, and tends to asphyxiate when driven but it relaxes me every time I'm in it and gets as many positivecommentsastheFerrari."
But despite personal preferences, when it comes to the Fund, Luke wouldlovetoseeitownaBMWE46 M3 GTR. A road car built in small numbers for homologation so BMW couldtakeitracing.
While able to make unemotional decisionsfortheFund,ourmembers
are still influenced from their own experiences. Take the 2004 E46 M3CS with a 6 speed manual and Alcantara seats that Luke once owned. It was the BMWs Motor Show car that was stolen from BMW Australia by a Melbourne drug cartel. Luke sold it to a friend who knewitwasafutureclassicand,despite owning other cool stuff after, Luke still lamentsthatdecision."Manyforgetthat financial returns on cars is a relatively new concept. But, as the Fund emphasises, a car like my Ferrari 328 GTS has a future owner who's a passionate enthusiast, grew up loving Magnum PI and wants to spend an exorbitantsumtoown."
And that's exactly what we are betting on with the Vantage GT8, that there is an enthusiast who needs to own a rare andelusivecarinAstonMartinhistory.
