Whether you are buying a new car or a used car, the value of your car depreciates over time. You can work out how much your car is worth by estimating how much it has depreciated in value. As a rough guide, new cars that cost £13,000 will depreciate by about £1,190 a year, between £13,000 and £18,000 by about £2,156 a year, £18,000 to £25,000 by roughly £2,611, £25,000 to £32,000 by roughly £3,672 a year and vehicles over £32,000 by about £6,974.
