Data taken from the advertising pages of the Sunday Times a few years, and which represent cars for sale in the UK (mainly in and around London) in pounds. The asking prices are classified according to type/model of car, age of car (in six-month units based on date of registration), recorded mileage, and vendor. Interest lies in explaining price, distinguishing models according to price, depreciation with age and mileage, possible varying depreciation rates across models of car, collinearity issues for age and mileage, possible vendor differences on asking prices, outliers, influential cases, predicting prices Data columns: 1. Case number 1,2, .... , n=54 2. Asking price in pounds (NB: Note the "rounding" up to ..995, etc!) 3. Type/Model of car 0=model 500, 1=450, 2=380, 3=280, 4=200 4. Age of car in six-month units (based on advertised registration date) 5. Recorded mileage (in thousands of miles) 6. Vendor (0,1,2,3 are different dealerships, 4 means sale by owner) Case Price Mod Age Mile Vend 1 30495 0 1 7 0 2 22250 0 3 16 0 3 23995 0 3 8 1 4 18495 0 3 15 2 5 20950 0 2 26 4 6 21500 0 3 18 4 7 19995 0 5 24 0 8 18950 0 5 20 3 9 15695 1 6 13 0 10 15995 1 6 27 1 11 16595 1 6 18 2 12 15995 1 6 25 2 13 9950 1 11 43 4 14 17995 2 3 23 0 15 17495 2 4 16 0 16 21995 2 3 13 1 17 21995 2 1 2 1 18 19695 2 2 5 2 19 16850 2 4 15 4 20 16750 2 4 44 4 21 19850 2 4 22 4 22 21000 2 3 5 3 23 17950 2 5 44 3 24 17995 3 1 6 1 25 16295 3 2 14 0 26 16495 3 3 4 1 27 15995 3 4 15 1 28 13995 3 3 7 1 29 16995 3 1 11 2 30 15595 3 3 14 2 31 11995 3 5 11 2 32 13195 3 4 13 2 33 8995 3 7 31 4 34 17500 3 4 25 4 35 15450 3 4 25 3 36 14750 3 2 21 3 37 15750 3 4 16 3 38 12250 3 5 27 3 39 10995 4 2 13 0 40 10995 4 2 12 0 41 10495 4 3 24 0 42 8995 4 5 34 0 43 10295 4 3 7 2 44 6450 4 7 41 3 45 10950 4 4 29 3 46 9750 4 4 21 3 47 6950 4 8 35 3 48 9950 4 3 11 3 49 8750 4 3 40 3 50 10750 4 2 12 4 51 4950 4 8 57 4 52 9250 4 2 23 4 53 9250 4 4 21 4 54 8995 4 3 24 4
