Title: Eleven months old... 14,000 miles....Huge depreciation
Post by: Field Marshal Dr. Opti on 23 May 2013, 14:16:34

I'm guessing this diesel model was close to £20,000 when new...... less than a year ago.

When I first saw the then brand new Insignia, the salesman told me it would hold it's value 'extremely well'...Hmm I wonder. ;)

A new car is just something you pop in the skip after a couple of years

when it becomes unwanted and old.

That would have been knocking on the door of £26-27k new :o

Vauxhall dealers often have lower spec petrol Insignias for £9-11k
