This is obviously USA based and follows mainly high end 'SUV's' . But it surely must be happening here ? or will soon ?

The best selling new " cars " AKA passenger vehicles in the USA for many years were Ford and General Motors pickup trucks-don't know if this is still the case or not ? https://www.jdpower.com/automotive-...-best-selling-truck-for-46th-consecutive-year

Had reason to check the value of a couple of my cars recently - checking market value for insurance purposes - and the swing in recent months appears to have been hard and fast on the cars I checked.

In fact one of them is probably almost down to where it might have been had the used car price bubble never happened. I didn’t use WBAC or similar, just looked at asking prices or cars for sale.

Bad enough as an individual, but it must have been a very difficult quarter (or two) for dealers holding stock of similar cars.
Huh?

So the bubble’s burst and values are where they were in ‘20 or ‘21. …

So owner’s haven’t seen anything like the depreciation they would normally have seen over those 2-3 years

Pass the Bolly, boys…

We’ve not lost money and our next car is more affordable than it was 12 or 24 months ago. With more choice, too !

Dealers? “Don’t cry for me, Argentina!” The truth is, a dealer makes money all the time… it’s turnover that makes profit, not holding stock.

One car being back to where it might have been isn’t the same as the bubble bursting, but is indicative that it’s more than just a softening of the market.
 
Yes, a £55k coupe sells for £16+k eight years later. 70% depreciation, or two thirds if you will.

Where's the surprise in that? it's nowt to do with taxes. it's usage, depreciation and fashion.

I bought a seven year old CL500 not so long ago. £105k new, less 80% depreciation. Normal, really.
