A colleague turned up at the office in this today:

Really rather beautiful in the flesh, and a change from the usual premium brands we get at work.

As Dunk says, it'll be worth **** all in 3yrs time.

My Cayenne had depreciated 45% in its 1st year & thats with the dealers cut in there as well.

I would never buy new again unless it was something a bit special

Not a problem - he leases the car for (2 year contract).

Excellent second or third hand buy in a few years?

45% in one year, jesus !

Do they all do that, i.e. Turbo, S, V6 ?

And it should get worse now, 4x4s are now falling out of favour with the masses and about time too. (I really don't have anything against people buying what they want but even I'm sick of the ***** that drive them in central London now)

If that had a fully battened main, it would be perfect. However, that is the better of his two purchases given that it will appreciate in value.

A good friend of mine as the four door as well and whilst it's a lovely car he's had a few problems with it, the latest one being the fuel filler cap which has been disabled so he can't re-fuel it. Back to Graypaul on a flatbed again!

Mines is the Turbo. Bearing in mind someone else took the first hit.
