Depreciation Insight

When budgeting for a used car, understanding how the model loses value over time is essential. Depreciation for the Rover 45, especially the 2004 model, follows a predictable curve that aligns with typical trends for mid‑size family sedans.

• In the first year after purchase, a Rover 45 typically shed about 15‑20% of its initial value.
• From year 2 to year 5, depreciation slows to around 8‑12% per annum.
• After five years, the rate typically stabilises between 5‑7% annually.

These rates reflect both the vehicle’s incentive for early super‑9 owner spoilage and the brand’s historical reliability ratings. For example, a 2004 Rover 45, bought new for £10,000, might be worth roughly £6,500 to £7,200 after five years, depending on mileage, condition, and market factors.
