It's nothing new and I wouldn't be surprised if somebody pays £26k for that one.
When Range Rovers first came out there was a 1 year waiting list. My Grandfather had a new one every year, ordering the next one a year ahead. He was able to sell the 1 year old cars for the retail price to people wanting to avoid the 1 year wait. I think he did that for 7 or 8 years, driving a new Range Rover every year and losing hardly a penny on depreciation.

No eBay APP ID and/or Cert ID defined in Kunena configurationWhat queue is being jumped?
SZ4 2017 model with 7k miles for £16k. Trickle down residual re-uptake?
(Or dealer chancing an arm?)

Notice the black SZ5 that was on eBay for 25k has gone.

Two Suzuki dealers have said to me that residuals for the last Gen 3 models (and demand for them) is high.

No eBay APP ID and/or Cert ID defined in Kunena configurationNo eBay APP ID and/or Cert ID defined in Kunena configurationI started this thread amused that a little Suzuki could pull a demand/supply tailspin. I don't think there was ever speculation even on the Cappuccino and that was really restricted in numbers of imports.
But now, especially after reading Lambert's assessment of the new car, I feel worried. Suzuki could have done something to meet demand - it must have been obvious as soon as the first focus group looked at it that the world was going to go bananas over the new car and discussion groups everywhere would be full of comments like "I don't really know what it is, I'd never look at it normally, but I really really want one".
And then discover it isn't a Range Rover or a Ferrari or any kind of car that normally produces this kind of hype.
Ah well, onwards and upwards.

Interesting that Tom's most expensive one has gone while these cheapies hang around.
