After my previous 5 series was stolen I was given a market value of £23k by the insurance company - they used 40% as the guide for measuring value after 4 years.

BMW have used approximately 45% as the measure for the final balloon payment after 4 years on my new X4. SUVs hold there value more so I guess 45% holds up against the 40% for my 5 series.

I have read that they used to be more conservative with the GMFV but now are not so to help reduce the monthly premiums. Personally, I think I would struggle to sell my X4 after 4 years at even the balloon price, and so will likely just hand the car back.
