UK Car Discount Hits The £60 Million Figure

UK Car Discount, one of the UK’s leading internet car dealers is celebrating 10 years in business. The company to date have sold over 4,000 cars to the value of almost £60 million pounds. “Our aim was always to deliver the best deals in the marketplace on brand new cars along with a first class service,” says Managing Director Brian Bennett “We have been able to save our customer on average 20% on their new vehicle and continue to deliver great deals and a first class service to this day”
 
Changes in the market have meant that the average price of cars sold back in 2003/2004 was around £15,000 but this has shifted to an average price of £12,000-£13,000 with strong demand for smaller more fuel efficient cars. The shift towards diesel cars has been significant for the same reason however petrol models seem to be making a small comeback as manufacturer’s are producing significantly more fuel efficient and eco-friendly petrol engines.  The manufacturer’s battle  to produce more efficient new cars has injected impetus into the UK new car market with sales on the up largely helped by private buyers taking advantage of much lower running costs on the latest models with lower insurance bands, excellent fuel economy and road tax exemption in some cases.
 
Hybrids have become a real factor in the market now with the Toyota Pruis being the most popular hybrid for UK buyers and we expect a significant increase in the number of Hybrids on UK roads in the next few years. Further along the line as technology improves we’re sure demand will increase significantly for full electric models like the Prius Plug-in and the Nissan Leaf.
