thanks for your replies, that's what I thought too....pitiful discount especially when a new car drops in value loads! It was a good spec though, If we order new what kind of discount should I expect?
No discount buying new usually and the value doesn't seem to drop loads based on the offer you've had for a used one (due to the waiting time for new one).DSM2 said:

No discount on new and expect a 6 month wait for a new one.
Residuals still rock solid on the diesel hence the pitiful saving on an ex-demo car.
How do you define "rock solid"?Residuals still rock solid on the diesel hence the pitiful saving on an ex-demo car.
If you can wait, it's obviously best to buy new but the Cayenne Diesel is in massive demand right now.
A a general rule that discount level is pretty poor. HOWEVER, as said above the diesel cars (panamera and cayenne) are both very much in demand right now. If spec is good then you could save yourself a 6 month wait and £3k and get it now. If it's not really what you want, order from new and take the wait
12 month depreciation is expected to be circa £3k.

How do you get £3K depreciation in a year? This car has dropped more than that in less than a year (and that is assuming that the £62k price includes all the extras on the car) and you would probably get a lot closer to £50k if you sold your similar car to a dealer, allowing him to sell it at late £50k's.

These threads always confuse (and amuse) me.
If you're rich enough to buy a car like that, why are you worried about a discount or depreciation?
No offence.
In my opinion because I'd prefer the money to be in my pocket than theirs. I don't earn a fortune, it's hard earned and I spend it wisely most of the time - simples!!If you're rich enough to buy a car like that, why are you worried about a discount or depreciation?
No offence.

Your comment amuses me as much as this thread's existence amuses you If you're rich enough to buy a car like that, why are you worried about a discount?
No offence.
Just because you're "rich enough" to spend this kind of money on a car doesn't mean you're not interested in a good deal if you can get one.

How are you measuring that - if you buy one new, is the dealer going to buy it back for £3K less after 12mths? Seems unlikely, as they'd then need to retail it for more than the new list price.

If I had that kind of money, a couple of grand here and there wouldn't bother me. I never ask for discounts no matter how much or little I've got.
I certainly wouldn't be on here worrying about depreciation.
Maybe this is the reason you don't have the quandry of the OP in the first place?I certainly wouldn't be on here worrying about depreciation.
