Default New RS Depreciation

So

Im Just interested really.

Focus Rs,s Mk1 can be found now at 7-8K so what will a Mk2 be worth.

This was being discussed on another thread so i thought i would post it.

Im saying in 3 Years out of warrenty theres a poss they could be found for 12K.

Maybe im wrong.

How much do you guys think, considering they are £25K new.

Weren't mk1's a ltd run
And mk2's not,this to me sugggest greater depreciation,tho bearing in mind the current climate not as many will be sold so will that mean less depreciation?....I am now confused
But then they will be worth what people will pay!!!

Time will tell....

Lets see ~767.000NOK with todays currency, 84,386.01GBP
In 3 years, maybe we will be looking at 600-650.000NOK

So they don't loose their value over here :P

Mk 2's aren't a declared limited run,
But production numbers will be limited by the arrival of the mk 3 Focus next year or year after, giving the mk2 RS a shorter time run but probably a slightly greater number run.

And I don't remember any Mk1's for One thousand,
nine hundred and ninety five pounds

Ford have said the RS is finished, but also previously said the 4 x 4 development done during the MK2 RS program would be carried over to the Mk 3.
