Default Cayenne depreciation

When I first saw then I though yuck but in recent months I have started to see the ugly beauty of it all.

Anyway, check out the prices..

Add on the annual running costs and you'll see why!

Running costs are not that shocking if you find a good indy.

My MD has just bought one of these - don't know whether or not I should tell him about the depreciation - it's bad enough that he got one a model year older than he thought it was!
