You may be able to achieve maximum value for the E60 by combining the purchases of the X5 and the 6 series. Such a large transaction would undoubtedly sharpen the salesman's pencil somewhat.
More power to your wallet
Not 100% about the 6 series. Not sure about the shape - certainly wont be a classic. Havent ruled it out yet but on looks prefer the SL.

My Ride: E61 535d sport, Silver Grey/grey/maple. 20" Hartge Nova 7. Previously 19" staggered 172s
Default

I looked at Whatcar figures for depreciation and they looked good - the dealer just laughed.

Dealer reckons (and my experience is close to this)for trade-in value at three years:

50% of list
Auto/leather and Nav 50%
Other options - nil

For less than average miles, two years old with extra toys, and traded against a BM I also think you will be in the 65 - 70% ballgame. Alot depends on market conditions at the time though.

If it was only 50% ie ?21,500, that would be painful.

65% ie ?27,950 wouldnt be too bad.
Just seen such a deal on the dealers forecort. Similar spec and equiv scenario in age to your projection...price was ?27,995. This topic crossed my mind as i looked at it
