Yellow cars hold value

YELLOW cars keep their value more than any other colour, a study of two million vehicles has found.

While the average car depreciates by 33 per cent in the first three years of ownership, yellow ones depreciate by only 27 per cent.

The worst-performing are gold vehicles, which lose 40 per cent of their value.

The results of the US study showed that orange cars depreciate by 30.6 per cent, green by 30.9 per cent, white by 32.6 per cent, red by 32.7 per cent, and blue by 33.5 per cent.
