I am contemplating purchase of a approved used 55 AMG, but this does not need to be imminent. Is there a likelihood of the price going down in the next year or so with Brexit etc. Gut feeling is yes, but would value the opinion here.

Thanks

Maybe depends a bit on age but if it's Mercedes approved it will probably still have some way to go before prices bottom out, brexit or no brexit.

The older you buy the closer they will come to the point where they start to hold their value and even maybe start to go up a bit longer term, but these cars won't be approved.

Really depends on what you're looking at.

I had an R171 for 18 months and that appreciated. However it was an exceptionally highly specced car with low mileage. I've kepy half an eye on the market since then and it seems like R171's with the right mileage and spec then up is the only way. Leggy examples or low spec have still got a way to drop in my opinion.
