Supply and Demand of Citroen C5 on the local auto market

After three years, the car typically costs only 60% of its initial asking price ($21,214) while it will only be worth 30% of the MSRP after 7 years ($9,532). The C5's value after twelve years is only 13% of its original price depending on its condition of course.

Depreciation according to vehicle mileage

One more way to analyze car depreciation is to study the decrease of value vs kilometers driven. The Citroen C5 depreciation curve below describes this phenomenon for the city of Johannesburg.
