    "No effect, normal devaluation cycle".


    I buy my Land Rovers at 10 years old & for roughly 5% of the original price.
    All the bugs have been sorted out by then.


    So, I should say thank you Andrew now for sorting out my new (in a few years time) car .

    Landies devalue horribly as it is. I bought my 05 HSE V8......$105k....sold 2 yrs later for $58k.........I will NEVER buy one new again.....but will happily buy one 2nd hand . Though the D4 could assist in devaluing them a smidgy further.

    Regards

    I said firm up but not for the reason stated.
    I think as more people realise how good the D3 is they will buy a second hand one over the LC200. The D4 is heading towards LC200 price too.

    Defenders hold their value pretty well.
    Not so sure the D3 will though.

    Yep..stand corrected there...realised after I posted as fenders do seem to hold value well compared to its siblings,

    Normal devaluation for me.

    Having gone through the buying cycle just recently the most critical thing for me in the end was the price.

    The new D4 will be more expensive so a 2nd hand D3, especially a later model might look like a good buy at 20-30% off new price.

    The current run-out deals will reduce resale value of the 2nd hand car market.

    They pre-sold all the diesels ages ago. Tried to get one from Alto for my cousin two months ago, said they had sold out of diesels till the D4 arrives.
    The V6s will be the ones to lose their value quickest.
