Buying a Seat Used Car

Automotive Export Limited is a privately owned British company specialising in the supply of truck and bus components. Based in Leyland, Lancashire, we have access to many local component suppliers including the manufacturers of DAF and Leyland Trucks.

Even in the midst of an economic recession people need a way to get around. So, as the state of the UK economy remains in question, buyers have slowly but surely started to buy cars again. According to industry numbers, car sales improved last quarter, but not by much.

And although no one expects the industry to rebound any time soon, one bright spot is the used car market. Though the numbers are sketchy, most dealers report that they have seen a respectable increase in sales over last year's numbers.

Why is this happening? The simple fact is that people are always going to need a way to get to work in the morning, and when they cannot afford a new car because of unemployment or the economy, they will likely opt for the next best thing. A seat used car can be purchased for up to forty per cent less than a new one, on average.

The reason for this is simple-new cars lose their value or depreciate at incredible rates. Current prices and valuation of used cars tells us that new cars lose between fifty and sixty-five per cent of their value in the first five years of ownership.

But that is not the only reason used sales have suddenly become more appealing. In recent years, used car dealerships have begun offering full and partial warranties for most of the cars that they sell. This means that if anything goes wrong, the dealership is responsible for all repairs. As you might imagine, this takes a lot of the worry out of buying a pre-owned vehicle.
