See me varied other posts on the value of 4x4's. For the last 12months I been telling people that most 4x4's and especially landrovers are over valued by at least 30% and that it was just a matter of time before the buying market woke upto this fact. And I've been proved right yet again!!,

Fuel prices i think are a major factor on the reduced prices, people are trying to off load them for more economy, if a 4x4 is not essential to your use,s then they have to go, I use mine for going onto the beaches for fishing and towing a caravan ,but the fishing on the beaches has been replaced by trips to scotland fishing freshwater lochs so now i am considering selling i bought it 18 months ago for £5500 and have recently advertised at £3500 no takers at all , might have to go back to beach fishing.

Fella31 - what are you asking for the Disco?
I have a 2002 TD5 with 130k miles, and I guess it's worth ~£4k now, whereas it was a good bit higher last year.
I've decided to hang onto mine for a while longer, unless I get a decent offer above £4k...I did try advertising on this forum a few months ago, but wanted £5,500 which was probably too much...

The proposed VED for 2010 of £455 is enough to frighten people away.,

Heard a terrible tale of depreciation only the other day, mate bought a VW Toerag about 3 years ago, the V10, 5.0 Tdi one, cost new was £65K ish, he paid £47K as an ex demo, ran it 2 years, put 30 odd K miles on it, took it to p/x and was offered £16K for it!!!!!!
Oh how I laughed ............
And now he's paying £60K for a BMW X6 In lovely lipstick red!

Whilst looking for our Disco over the last few months, I kept an eye on this website...
WiseBuyer's Guides - Used car prices
...and believe it or not according to these a 95' 300Tdi having done 120K has lost nearly £700 in value in the last 9 months.
Luckily I blagged £2,300 for our last Disco off the insurance co. before the prices dropped

Nope the changes are retrospective and apply to all vehicles register post 2001. also there are about 5 new bands so instead of the steep jump from £210 to £440 there are several different tax bands.

I'm afraid your in for a long long long wait at that price
This is autotraders offerings and bear in mind most of these are trade price, as a private seller you need to be coming in at about 80% of trade price.

Hi fella31, I wish you the very best of luck but I do think you will be waiting a LONG time at that price.
If you want to sell it in the current market a price nearer to £6-7000 will be the only way. Nobody is buying Discos now - everyone wants 50-60mpg.
Good luck
