The new 20 registration plate hit the road this month but that also means it is a great time to buy a used car.
March is traditionally the biggest month of the year for new car registrations, accounting for around a fifth of the annual total.
Last March saw 458,054 new cars registered out of the total 2019 market of 2,311,140.
So, let’s figure it out. If March is a big month for new car registrations, then dealers will also have a good range of used stock from part-exchanges and trade-ins against new models, and will be wanting to shift some metal.
Marketing Manager Fran Brown said: “Everyone is talking about the new registration plate but not everyone can afford a brand new 20-plate car.
“The surge in new car sales is going to be reflected in the used car market and that is where we are very often the cheapest source of finance.
“We can do personal contract plans (PCPs), hire purchase (HP) and leasing on used cars, as well as new ones,” she explained. “A lot of people don’t realise they can do a PCP on a used car but they can.
“You might have got a quote from your dealer but come and see us, tell us what they quoted, and we would like to think we can beat it.
“So many customers come back to us year after year and, as our loyal customers tell us, they keep coming back to us because we offer them the best deal!”
Financing used cars is a significant volume of our business because our quotes are so competitive. We also find that arranging finance for a private individual or a business on a used car is often just the start of our relationship and leads to other business with them.
“Just because we give you a fantastic deal now to get your business, don’t think it won’t apply to your next one,” she said. “We will always give you a good deal. We don’t just offer you the best rate to get you on board.
“We want to win new customers and then keep them.”
