    How much have 1 and 2 year old R8's depreciated in the UK? Where do you think they will bottom out ?

    It depends how much you drive it more than how old it is.

    take a look on autotrader.co.uk - there are around 110 cars on there with prices starting around £60k.

    I think it's very hard to say where they will bottom out given the uncertainty of the economy and the near future release of the v10 at a much closer price point to an optioned up v8 than many predicted.

    actual cars start around the £60k mark - including 2 approved used r8's from audi dealers sub £60k

    still look to be over 100 actual different cars even allowing for the finance/dupes.

    Andy, I got your mail so thanks for that.

    Everything has been put in place for me to purchase NY57KXY and pick up on Friday, subject to giving the car a very thorough check.

    Tyneside Audi were selling on behalf of a client, who it would appear needed to sell rather quickly Despite this car is till covered by the usual Audi Approved scheme etc.
