I think the RCZ finishing 2nd is quite respectable. Also as we know the footrest can be sorted, shame Peugeot don't for one

I think that the 2 series looks awkward (and a bit dull). I knew that the Roc is due to be getting a facelift and some interior trim upgrades but will remain largely the same I believe. Interesting to hear that they felt that its handling lacked the feel of the others. I'd certainly rather have the RCZ than the Beemer though.

I bought that mag and was shocked by the BMW residuals.
Also the cost to get a comparable car to The Gt spec. It is gorgeous tho!

I don't think the BMW looks as nice as the old 1 series coupe. It's too long, if that makes sense. I bought the magazine and TBH the article was pretty rubbish. Factually incorrect on numerous points. Pretty poor journalism.

We have been badly burnt in the past on residuals on German prestige cars. A 987 Boxster that went from £41k - £33k in 4 months I think was the worst. Closely followed by a Z4 coupe that went from £35k - £28k, but thankfully ended up being bought back by BMW instead as it was a lemon. Had a similar experience on a C220 Diesel Sport Edition, but I can't recall the figures on that.

Your loss on those cars is mainly the VAT you were charged when purchasing new, which cannot be charged when selling on. A hard thing to swallow but to be expected when purchasing new I'm afraid. Unsure why they are comparing an SE as Big Mac says, the tested model has thousands of extras on whereas an m sport 220d is c. £28k and looks miles better.

Yes I know that. The Porsche wasn't brand new however.

It's unusual for Porsche as they tend to keep their prices well. OH sold his Porsche for more than he bought it for...!

The 1st Boxster was also from memory a similar depreciating car, but was new from 1st registration so a little more understandable. The 2nd was an en ex demo.
