Used car market offers good value

When it comes to bagging a second-hand bargain, there’s no time like the present.

With sales of new cars up month on month since the start of the year and healthy volumes of 142 registered cars rolling out of showrooms across the country, there are plenty of trade-ins going in the opposite direction.

Used car transactions are at their highest levels in five years and with 2014 coming to an end there’s plenty of value to be had. However, the advice is shop around as there is very good value to be found in the second-hand market.
