Secondhand car price crash?
Discussion
What do these discounts tell us about the market or more specific the EV market
Just over 2k miles and £36.6k off list price.
It's the PCP monthlies at less than what alot of cheaper vehicles would cost, and then the optional final price that seems optimistic in 2 years considering the selling price new and the way used EVs fair
Who is taking the hit on these losses, there does not seem to be a shortage of them either so further discounting a possibility.

Presumably - ex lease or ex management cars? I'm sure someone on here will know.
I see theres £500 put in to the finance by Mercedes.
PCP APR isnt great but is someone needs to PCP theres probably alternative PCP funding sources out there.

In 1 year that car dropped £35k in year 1, then they give you a used PCP that says in year 2 and 3 it will drop another £7.5k
Unless the market does a strong recovery they'll be taking another hit on that in 2 years time
You make a very good point.Unless the market does a strong recovery they'll be taking another hit on that in 2 years time
You can buy 3 year old EQC AMG Lines with sub 30K miles (low miles + 24,000 miles of the agreement) from dealers for £30K....

Do 2023 EVs potentially get hit with luxury car tax at some stage or are they still exempt after the changes that hit new ones?
I think insurance could potentially be the kicker as well
AFAIK, no. The luxury car supplement will only apply to new EVs registered after April 2025.I think insurance could potentially be the kicker as well
The standard tax rate will apply to all cars registered after 2017.

They were pre registered with delivery mileage by Mercedes late 2023, most likely to hit an EV registration target or just clear the decks of old stock.Presumably - ex lease or ex management cars? I'm sure someone on here will know.

There were some PCP bargains around as some funders are slow to reduce their Residual Values in line with market trends. When these cars were being offered in the trade by another dealer group they were closer to £45k (they would have put a £750 admin fee across each) so I can only assume Arnold Clark got a further volume discount.

Absolutely no help to this thread whatsoever - however this morning I watched someone sell a Cullinan to WBAC (in a hotel car park).
I tried, but the WBAC guy wouldn’t tell me what they paid for it. Would love to know the back story behind that one!
Did you get the reg? You could plug it in to WBAC and it'll give you the headline figure at least. I tried, but the WBAC guy wouldn’t tell me what they paid for it. Would love to know the back story behind that one!
