01 · Monthly ownership costs
Everything it costs to keep the car on the road.
Finance or loan, fuel or electric, insurance, tax, maintenance, breakdown cover. Most owners underestimate this by 10 to 15%. Be honest when you add them up.

How the maths work
Two numbers most Toyota owners never sit down with.
02 · Monthly depreciation
The value your Toyota loses each month.
Well-maintained Toyotas hold value well, but all cars depreciate. Newer models and hybrids typically lose less. The calculator uses an illustrative baseline adjusted for mileage, not a figure for your car. A real valuer prices your actual Toyota when you ask for an offer.
Simple rule: take your monthly income from the vehicle, then subtract your monthly costs and the monthly depreciation. If less than £100 a month is left, selling probably makes sense. Between £100 and £300 the numbers are close. At £300 or more, holding is the smarter choice. At 280,000 miles or more the calculator says sell whatever the figures.
FAQ
Common questions.
How does a high-mileage Toyota hold its value?
Well-maintained Toyotas (especially hybrids) hold value better than most cars, and high mileage alone doesn't kill Toyota resale. Condition, history and age matter more than the odometer.
Is this a price offer?
No. The calculator shows no price at all. It weighs what your Toyota costs you each month against an illustrative depreciation figure. For a real price, enter your reg and our valuer replies within 2 hours with a number that holds for at least 72 hours.
Why does it ask my ownership costs?
To help you decide. If your car costs £100/month to keep but is only losing £50/month in value, holding makes sense. If it's costing you more than it's losing, selling might be smarter.
Does it work for all Toyotas?
Yes. The same rule applies across Prius, Corolla, Hilux, Land Cruiser, hybrid and electric models: what the car costs you each month against what it loses. The depreciation figure is an illustrative baseline for a Toyota at your mileage, not a figure for your car.
What costs should I count?
Fuel, maintenance, insurance, tax, breakdown cover, repairs. Be honest. Most owners underestimate by 10 to 15%. Leave depreciation out, the calculator adds it for you.
