According to the honored Finnish autoclub's study of (MY 2003) 2 year old large cars
(EU measurements), the E60 holds its value as a second hand car the best.

Results:

BMW 5-series 86%
Volvo V70 80%
M-B E-series 79%

Also in SUV's BMW stands great:

Volvo XC90 90%
Toyota RAV4 87%
BMW X5 86%

Used cars must hellish expensive up there, a 5 series is worth less than 86% of it's value here after you have got off the dealers forecourt!

Or do you mean a 3 yr old car will retain it's value over a further period of time better, and if so what period of time?

The E60 is tops in resale value here in the US too.

I think the 5 series in generall has done very well over the years.

Yes. But in US it is only about 60% left after 2 years.
