With the new car registrations there’s a wave of used cars hitting the market as they come off finance or lease agreements of two, three or four years. March and September are the busiest months for car sales, 30% of new cars are registered in those months alone with 78% of those sales being financed. With more used cars becoming available, buyers may have a better chance of finding their ideal make and model at a competitive price. These cars can make for a great buy for a number of reasons; typically they will have had just one owner, come with a full service history, often from main dealers, and generally will have been well maintained. The UK’s most popular leased cars include the Nissan Qashqai, the all-electric Tesla Model Y SUV, Audi A3, Vauxhall Corsa, and the Volkswagen T-Roc *

Ashley Winston of Palmdale Car Finders has spent 20 years sourcing the best used cars for his clients. There isn’t much that he hasn’t seen in the used car market place. Ashley says, “It will take a little time for car dealers to prep the cars being returned so you might want to hold off to the end of the month but it’s certainly a good time to start looking as there will be plenty to choose from.”

For those not wishing to use a car finding service Ashley has shared all of his knowledge in a free 45-page guide.

About Ashley Winston Palmdale Car Finders Ltd

Having personally had a wide-range of experiences sourcing his own cars that ranged from occasionally good, through to awful, Ashley realised that there was a real need for a trustworthy car finding service for those without car buying experience. Initially, the plan was to just help friends (and friends of friends) and use the income to fund his own car addiction… but just for six months. That plan certainly changed! Twenty years on, Ashley has delighted thousands of clients by helping them find cars that they love – exactly meeting their taste, needs and budgets – always reliable, safe, and able to provide years of service.

“That’s why Palmdale exists. To provide peace of mind. Too many people have an awful experience buying a used car. It’s our mission to help as many people as possible so that their ‘new’ car is a source of pleasure.”
