The total number of car park (vehicles-in-use) grew across the country with a CAGR of approximately 2.0% during 2013 to 2018. This is due to increase in both new and used car sales.

This is due to low priced hatchbacks which have created a positive impact on the sales of used cars in the country. Owing to this fact, the Hatchbacks will continue to dominate the market in the future.

By Kilometers Driven (Less than 5,000 km; 5,000-20,000 km; 20,000-50,000 km; 50,000-80,000 km; 80,000-120,000 km and Above 120,000 km): Pre-owned cars falling in the range of 20,000-80,000 km driven dominated UK used cars market in terms of sales volume in the year 2018.

This segment recorded highest sales owing to the fact that potential buyers had a large variety of used car models to choose from. This was followed by the cars manufactured between 2009 to 2012.

Moreover, these brands have a huge networking across the country to make sure that they are at a reachable distance from the customers.
