When is the right time to change?

Just wondered if anyone has a magic formula as to when to change Fatties? I am useless at it just seem to keep them

Yes, if you’re upgrading then hold off as a general rule, I think car prices are 15-20% higher than before there were new cars availability issues. MY23 Panamera E-Hybrid

Well I moved from a classic to a p38 in 2000 then in 2012 to the l322 so maybe next year or the year after to the 405 and still have the others Thumbs Up Especially as prices are a bit ott

I had the last one for 5 years, and it was still a reluctant sale. If you still enjoy it why change 🤷‍♂️ I personally find the process quite stressful. Sold - Bell a 2015 MY16 Loire Blue Autobiography 4.4 SDV8

United Kingdom 2011 Range Rover Vogue SE TDV8 Buckingham Blue

I normally swap between 4 and 4 and a half years…….

Had this one 6 😱🤣 not much else I fancy. Still love it to bits.

Still a bit of a jump to the L405 for me though.

Not sure there is ever a right time….

United Kingdom 2015 Range Rover Vogue SE SDV8 Aintree Green

I tend to start looking after 3 years but with a very specific requirement for colour, engine etc. Had the current car just over 3 years and its been faultless, so no screaming rush to change, especially at current prices. As noted they are at least 15-20% too high at the moment, so no sense changing yet.

Australia 2017 Range Rover Autobiography SDV8 Santorini Black

Had my P38 for 4 years . Got what I paid for it as a Trade in on my 2005 L322 TD6

Had my 2005 L322 TD6 now for 10 years . And still have . But have moved up to a 2017 L405 SDV8
Dealer wasn't going to give me very much for my TD6 . So it's still here at the moment . SWMBO won't let me keep it though . Didn't see why I needed a new one anyway . Nothing wrong with the old one Very Happy Very Happy Very Happy

Usually keep my cars for a long time . One for 33 years , another for 24 years

The key thing for me is the enjoyment of ownership. If you still get that kick every time you drive it, keep it and maintain it. When the enjoyment wears off or you really fancy a change, sell it. Kev
