HOW MUCH I've Lost on all the FORMER SHMEEMOBILES!

Рет қаралды 449,954

Күн бұрын

I'm exploring the values of all of my previous Shmeemobiles, then versus now! Buying used cars is now easier thanks to Carvertical reports, you can get 10% off using the discount code ‘shmee150’ here: www.carvertical.com/gb/landin...
In my life to date, I have owned 53 cars of which 17 are current Shmeemobiles, but that means I've therefore sold the other 36 and it brings an interesting question; what are each of those now worth compared to the time I sold them?
We're going to run through everything, from my 2005 Renault Clio, through to the supercars like the McLaren 12C, 650S Spider and AMG GT R Pro, via all of the other Mercedes, BMW, and other cars along the way. Ultimately the interest is to compare what they cost at list price, to what I then sold them for, and see how that stacks up against the market value at this time. To gauge approximate values, I've been browsing online marketplaces in the United Kingdom, and while some might not be wholly accurate, they will not be too far off.
A scary figure is certainly the total level of depreciation over the entire time, however that is countered by a huge number of enjoyable miles on the road, and many epic adventures, moments, and memories. However, you might be surprised by the number of cars that have in fact appreciated since sale, and by some of the figures of cars that have depreciated heavily since as well.
Thanks for watching, Tim

Always appreciate Tim's transparency of (super)car ownership. £420,000 over 18 years is a bit over £23,300 per year driving and enjoying 36 different and interesting cars. Sure £2k per month is not a small amount of money in depreciation but actually not as much as I expected owning that many cars, many of them simultaneously.

@@peash2097 If you buy a car for $100 and sell it for $250, the gain ($150) is in most countries subject to some sort of tax, generally called capital gains tax. If you gave a second car that you bought also for $100 and you sell it for $90, in most countries your loss ($10) can be offset against the gains you made on the first car. Your total gain across both sales is $140 ($150 less $10), and your tax is calculated on that amount. Obviously in the real world things are more complicated than that, but you get the idea. Note this is different from a salary, where generally if you earn $100 of salary you pay tax on that $100 even if you then spend most of it on food, lodging, etc. - with some important exceptions that vary wildly by country you generally can't deduct your living expenses from your salary for tax purposes.

Even if I'd had the cash to go out and change my 2008 car, I would have held off because to me the era of the artificially inflated new and used prices had to come back down by some realistic margin, so when I saw a video strongly suggesting by the end of this year (2023) we will probably see a significant if not huge drop in the aforementioned prices, i formed a cautious smile. I'm just hoping that my car does me proud and lasts for as long as needs be now. Take care.

Really really interesting video. Would be really interested to hear similar figures (bought for and value today)for the cars you still own.

I missed this video when you posted it somehow. It’s really interesting all the information going all the way back to the beginning. I really think you have made out well considering the use and enjoyment you have gained from all of these cars. I didn’t realize how many awesome cars you had the pleasure of experiencing. I was taken aback hearing how short a stint you have had with some of your cars. Considering all the great cars you have had the pleasure of owning/driving/living with. The main thing I see missing through all of this is the actual use value of the use you have had and how you have been able to share with all of your fans/followers. The thing I started thinking about as you went through the stats of each of the great cars was I wish I would have been able to be the one buying the ones you traded on. One thing I kept waiting to hear was the status of the McLaren Senna. I thought you had sold it already, I don’t think I would be able to part with it, that would be really hard for me. Hypercars are not that easy to acquire and I would think they would be keepers. I believe it would be best to make more content with it, and see how the value would change over time. Right now it seems as though the market is down on most everything. It doesn’t seem to be a time to sell most luxury goods. Just a thought, you seem to be doing pretty well on your own.

Thanks Tim, such a great video. You recommended me to buy an FF after your trip to New Zealand, and I have now completed 12, 000 miles in the car with no issues. Trade in time is overdue now [covid] so may go for a Ferrari super fast or Lusso. Thanks for the tip, such a great car, and many memorable miles. Cheers.

Enthralling video Tim. A particularly favourite of mine, the Heritage Edition RS is probably one of your best buys, surely doubling in price.

Great video Tim, moving up to much higher value cars will have a knock on effect with resale. The AMG mercs really surprisingly drop a lot, maybe a better second hand car. I remember losing 55k on my new SL55 and they are so cheap now!

Very candid and thanks. Not many car guys would lay it all out in such detail. Now in my case, I bought a Porsche 550RS Spyder complete but in rough shape for $40,000 in 1986. I spent about $65,000 restoring it to perfection, and it really was perfect with original engine and transmission, when I finished. That was about 1998, and collector car prices were down compared to earlier years. In 2000, I foolishly sold it into a down market for $275,000. In 2018, my car was sold by its then owner at auction at Monterey, for $4.5M. This sometimes keeps me up at night, but like you I am philosophical. I had fun with it.

Really interesting video. Genuine and honest view of behind the scenes monetary dealings. Losses have to be seen in context of how much revenue the cars have generated from content.

At last youtuber posts numbers! Nice to see such things. At the end it is business for you. Thanks for publishing and making videos for more than a decade. Just remembered your videos when you were not talking in videos and YT was a simple page :D
