Only lost 4,500 euro in 2 years that is very good going.
Way above normal i would think.

...nothing normal about a car dropping by over 45%... Only reason it has dropped so much is because of the glut of second-hand cars and the recession...

Lovely car Phil......
by the way, it is normal to lose 45% in depreciation these days, you're not exclusive to it at all. A mate of mine had a Range Rover sport, he lost €40k on it in 1 year and it was a ball of shite the time he had it, it was always in getting fixed.
But its all relative, as the next car you'll buy will be substancially down in price too.
Anyways, where else have you the car advertised?

Best of luck with the sale!

i agree with da stig, i was offered 12.5k for my 04 skoda superb last year. this year the same dealer offered 6k. only 57000kms last year and 68000 this year so mileage was not an issue.
