Frequently asked questions

How much is a 2018 Land Rover Discovery worth?

A 2018 Land Rover Discovery has a median retail value of $11,900, with most appraised between $9,812 and $18,441. At Copart and IAAI salvage auctions the same vehicles sold for a median of $5,000 across 39 recent sales — the middle 50% between $3,250 and $6,950.

Why is the 2018 Land Rover Discovery so cheap at auction?

Because auction lots are not retail cars. Most carry collision or flood damage, a salvage or rebuilt title, or are dealer-only liquidations sold as-is with no warranty. For the 2018 Land Rover Discovery that gap runs about 2.4× — $11,900 retail against a $5,000 auction median. The spread is the repair bill, the title brand, and the risk.

How accurate is this 2018 Land Rover Discovery value estimate?

Prices reflect live Copart and IAAI sale data from the last 180 days. They are most useful for: gauging salvage rebuild margins, comparing private-party asking prices to the auction floor, and spotting overpriced dealer listings. For a clean-title retail estimate use the depreciation calculator.
