Brabus prices.
« on: July 25, 2022, 10:22:36 PM »

Noticed two apparently nice Brabus forfours on AutoTrader today. One up for £6000, the other for £6999. 13 years ago I paid £6000 for mine. So, zero depreciation or thereabouts. It would seem that prices of good ones are on the rise.  ;)

Don’t confuse selling prices with buying prices. Selling prices are a start point for negotiations. Watch which cars seem to sell quickly to get an idea of where buyers see the market is at

I'm waiting for the day my BRABUS reaches the £10k mark :)

Although at the moment my numberplate is 50% of the car value ha

With fuel prices how they are - that's true for most cars now :)
