Buying a Vauxhall Insignia - why such high depreciation?
I've been looking at second hand prices on low mileage 2012 Insignias. Cars that cost £24,000 new are being sold via Auto Trader for around £10,000 a few months later. I know nobody pays the full list price, but the depreciation still seems very steep - worse than even Fiats and Citroens. Are these cars really that bad?

Our honest used car pricing is a little bit different to all the others. You can get to our values through make or model - you don’t have to follow a prescribed route. Plus, it’s live, which means we can react to changes in the market quicker than any printed price guide.
