Why do C3 Picassos depreciate so much?
I am thinking of buying a low-mileage diesel Citroen C3 Picasso. However, I'm struck by the speed at which their value seems to fall. Should that warn me off the model? I'm impressed by everything else about them, but this aspect does worry me.

No. That should tell you that new ones are heavily discounted, but, even so, it's smarter to buy used.
