Depreciation/Residuals

[silentbrown]

Anyone know of a website that shows expected 3-year residual values on new cars?

CAP claimed to have something, but I can't find it...

What Car? do, but i notice that some are missing. Not sure if they are keeping them up to date.

If German depreciation is any help; ADAC does, and includes a running cost calculator for new cars, where you can adjust how long to plan to keep the car and your annual mileage.

Isn't that effectively what Parkers/Glasses guides do?

CAP data probably has to be paid for.

Thanks, that's the best I've seen. (I was wondering how an RS4 could depreciate by more than 100% over 3 years - then I realised it was in pence per mile!)
