John H Posted April 22, 2010 Share Posted April 22, 2010 For various reasons, I can't afford to keep my motorhome so I am going to try to sell it. I read on here a long time ago, a rough way to estimate the year by year depreciation. I realise that you lose the VAT straight away but if I remember right, someone said that you should allow a certain percentage per year to be deducted from the value after the VAT has been deducted and I can't remember what the percentage is. Can anyone help please (?) John. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ranger Posted April 24, 2010 Share Posted April 24, 2010 Hi John, Phone the caravan club and they will tell you what the selling or buying price is, for a small fee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John H Posted April 25, 2010 Author Share Posted April 25, 2010 Thank you everyone for your suggestions. I have tried to get some idea of the sales value on the web but Elnagh's are a bit thin on the ground.The van is already advertised on Preloved, UK sites, Exchange & Mart and Practical Motorhome (That will get the thread pulled) but I don't know if I am selling at a reasonable price. Thank you Silverbck for Motorhome.mobi, I will probably give that a try and thank you M'lud, I will probably give Autotrder a go as well. I will give the CC a ring in the morning, thank you Ranger. I would even try MMM if they gave me a discount on their £45.00 fee. John. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
