Used car volumes rise through August
Used car demand remained strong in August with the average price of a used vehicle sold through BCA more than £8,000 for the third month in a row.
Sold volumes rose by 3.9% over the month, while BCA sold record numbers of vehicles online in August.
BCA COO UK remarketing Stuart Pearson said: “The stable market conditions continued in August, and there was no let-up in activity as we approached the plate change on 1 September. BCA has seen improving levels of supply reaching the marketplace throughout the period of the pandemic with well-matched demand for stock from our buyer base. The marketplace is operating very efficiently and this is good news for all professional operators in the used vehicle sector.”
