brand new vrs diesel - value in 3 years

[Si-Audi-Sline]

through my employers have been offered a VRS 170 CR standard spec with metallic paint at a very good price.

Rough ideal what would this 61 plate be worth 3 years down the line (2014) with 30K miles, I figured about 10 thousand pounds do you reckon it could be worth more given a new model will be out then?

Value of a three year old car today with your miles and mettalic. Of course no one can predict future prices so this is onnly a guide. I would have thought you car to be worth about 40% of its new price.

Its worthever people will pay for it, depends on the new model, price of derv and the popularity of small turbo petrol engines.

It also depends on what happens to new prices.

I've just done a check at Drive The Deal and the exact same spec as the one I purchsed just under a year ago is now approx £2,330 more than I paid. That must increase the second hand values by a few hundred quid or more.
