Estimated value
People wait to sell because they hope values will recover. Meanwhile depreciation keeps running in the background, and on a car worth £25,000 a modest annual rate is still hundreds of pounds a month.
Seeing that figure changes the decision. Waiting is a choice with a price attached, and this shows you roughly what it is.
Real depreciation is not a smooth curve. It is steepest in year one, flattens through the middle years, and is affected by new-price changes, fuel type shifts and model updates.
Electric cars have been particularly volatile. Treat this as a planning tool, not a prediction — and use a real valuation for anything that matters.
