February is seeing another up turn in business for used cars and another slump in new car sales. With the recession now in full swing it looks as if the car buying public are still buying, just not buying new. This makes sense really why buy new?

It’s going to depreciate; you will lose the VAT as soon as you drive it off the forecourt. Buy up to a couple of years old save yourself half the cost of a new car and love the savings. I’m sure new cars will start selling again just not anytime soon. In my opinion new cars will be dead this year and maybe 2010 will bring some joy.
