    Lightbulb would you sell? limited use, 12 months

    Hi guys,

    I have a superb 206 2016, fully optioned + 5 year wty + 5 yr servicing
    i'm considering starting a new job, but I wouldn't need the car at all.
    Wife and I have another car.
    Approximate costs of rego/insurance/deprectiation/interest on the loan is ~13k for 12 months - which seems a lot.

    nb: total family km per year would go down to ~18,000km after changing jobs.

    so its probably a dumb question, but, lets do a poll!

    It’ll depreciate a lot unfortunately, but that is the name of the game. If you can afford to wear the depreciation, and only need one car, then reducing the outgoing expenses makes a lot of sense.
    Cheers
