+1 I bought the 968 and M3 because I wanted them and thought the depreciation would be low. Just a nice thing that the trend for them has been that they have gone up in value...but then I won't capitalise on that unless I sell them. So it's kind of a moot point for meJobbo wrote: Mon May 18, 2026 9:42 amDan is obviously correct - surprised it needed saying really. Buy one because you want to drive it and enjoy the fact it won't really depreciate, and you just pay for what you wear out and use. But don't treat it as an investment.dan wrote: Mon May 18, 2026 8:24 am Do you actually want an investment car or something you can use?
Mint low mileage S1's fetch a large premium because they are investment cars, so you can't use them if you don't want to lose your money. I look after a few sub 10k mile cars that basically do 50 miles a year to my workshop and back, they're lovely but also pointless and the owners would expect 25 to 30 grand to take it off their hands.
If you want one to use then great, it'll probably be worth what you paid for it when you come to sell, whenever that might be, you might even make a tiny bit but cars and not losing money don't really go together unless you're a billionaire.
What’s it called and I can ask on the Bosch/Siemens forum? (Or TLF)
Must resist…
