How we assess a purchase
Each model reviewed in detail links to its supporting evidence. The suggested mileage range is an editorial recommendation. Rarity and low mileage alone do not determine value.
The scenario multiplies the starting value by (1 + annual change / 100) raised to the power of 5, 10 or 15. The gross difference is the scenario value minus the starting value. All amounts are nominal.
We convert international prices using ECB reference rates for 6 November 2026. Market data carry their own dates. We list the steering-wheel position only when verified for the individual vehicle and keep unknown positions separate. The catalogue also includes models without confirmed prices. ECB ↗
