  • Have you beaten the depreciation time bomb?
  • Or have you lost thousands as your car ages?
  • Tell us and win a subscription to What Car?

The Vauxhall Signum loses 70% of its value in three years

Have you cheated motoring's biggest cost? What Car? wants to hear from motorists who have played depreciation to their advantage –you could win a free magazine subscription worth £50.

Depreciation is the loss in a car's value as it ages. Almost every car depreciates, but some models retain their value better than others.

We also want to hear from drivers who have suffered the ravages of depreciation. If your car has shed value faster than shares in MG Rover, then get in touch.

If you've watched your car lose tens of thousands of pounds in a year, or are sitting pretty with an investment that's clung to its value tenaciously, send us a quick e-mail by clicking here to tell us your story.

The best entries will appear in future issues of What Car? every month, and will win a year's subscription to the magazine worth £50.
