Default scooby prices...special editions...worth it?

thinking about changing my scoob but the market is so unpredictable at the moment.
is it any different for special editions?
lets say i bought a type 25 (i wish!; ~£30k on the website) is it likely to hold its value well?....3 to 5 years down the line is it going to be worth just the same as any other scoob of that age?
if i change i sorta needa car thats not going to depreciate as quick as it does 0-60!
what do you guys reckon?
to special edition or not?! -that is the question!

Special editions tend to hold their money a little better than standard models, not so much if you mod them though. imo.

Rule of thumb is that they go for about 10-20% more than their standard cousins, so a my99 for instance at 4000 the RB5 with equivelent miles will be between 4400-4800.

Cheers mate, never come across that before!
Thanks for the help!

do the rarer ones depreciate slower as well as being worth more then...I would have expected so.
