Depreciation Insight

Car buyers often wonder what is a 2013 Volkswagen Golf GTI worth after a few years in the market. Depreciation is a natural part of any vehicle’s life cycle, but some models hold their value better than others. The Golf GTI’s robust engineering and loyal fan base help it stay resilient.
