Noob Alert - UK
Posted: Wed Jun 27, 2018 4:25 pm
Firstly, a couple of facts to set the scene:
1) I do not own a Porsche
2) I drive an S3 (lease)
3) I want to buy a Macan GTS
4) Am so glad the internet bouncers let me into this club
5) I love watches
I have been lurking for a bit and trying to get info on whether to purchase a Macan. Have always loved the look and wanted something more substantial after the S3. Alternatives are X3 M40i and the GLC 43 Coupe. Stelvio four-leaf may also be one to watch. I say they're alternatives as if I am honestly considering them - I'm not. As much as I consider picking up the own-brand beans in Tesco, Heinz always end up in the basket. Not that I'm comparing the Macan to Beans - although the morning after said food in my place may sound similar to the GTS exhaust. But that's my problem.
When trying to figure out the best type to buy and in attempting to analyse the asking price of the current batch of Macans on the market in the UK, I came up with the following (sorry about the crap layout, I tried to do a screen grab but realised I had nowhere to upload it to - noobtastic)
Eg Price Milleage Reg OTR Option Total Age Value Change Value % % Change

14 68900 7170 67 58158 9607 67765 1 -1135 101.67 1.67
15 62000 9084 66 58158 7470 65628 2 3628 94.47 -5.53
These egs are straight from the 'trader and inlclude a variety of assumptions on my part (including the obvious point that the Asking Price (AP) is the correct value). In summary, the average depreciation on the GTS looks like 5-9% in the first year with approx 10k miles; increasing to 13% in year 2 assuming another 10k road time.
Does that sound right to you experienced folk? At this rate, I won't be in a position to afford one! (budget was around £50k in the hope that Clydesdale would offer me something tasty).
Cheers in advance
