Sell your car on Saturday to drive a way better deal

DRIVERS who are thinking of selling their car could get hundreds of pounds more by acting immediately, with this Saturday tipped as the summer sweet spot.

Used car demand is currently hitting boiling point, according to motor finance expert Lorna Macpherson at Ocean Finance.

Used car prices rise as families gear up for the summer holidays and young drivers prepare for university in the autumn.

That drives up demand and prices for fuel-efficient and family-friendly models, while dealers often pay more to secure stock for their forecourts.
