Car Statistics Coursework

I am trying to work out what factor makes a car decrease in value the

most. I have chosen a large sample of cars which have had a service

history and erased some of the factors that I think I will not need.

The factors I am not using are make and model, colour, engine size,

fuel, MOT, tax, insurance, doors, style, seats, air conditioning,

gearbox and airbags. I have also got rid of the cars that do not have

all of the sufficient information.

I am using how many miles the car has driven, the age of the car and

MPG (miles per gallon). I am using these factors because I think that

these factors most effect the value of the cars price depreciation.
