Morpeth, Northumberland -- (SBWIRE) -- 05/01/2015 -- Continued high sales volumes in the new car sector spell good news for used car buyers says Morpeth dealer.

Figures released this month from the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders show that the UK's new car sales in March were up six per cent on the same period last year and are at their strongest since 1998. This represents three years of growth for the UK motor industry, partly helped by strong export markets.

March's figures were boosted by the new 15 plate registrations and the continuation of low interest rates. Increased numbers of more fuel efficient vehicles coming to the market has also encouraged owners of older cars to change as pump prices start to edge back up.

But what does all this mean for the secondhand market? For consumers looking to buy used cars Northumberland based dealer Alex Scott argues that it's good news. Higher new car sales means there are more trade-ins coming onto the forecourts which gives used buyers a greater range of choice.

With manufacturers increasingly offering three-year or longer warranties on their vehicles used buyers can be confident that they're getting a quality product that won't let them down and will offer peace of mind motoring.

Latest Citroen offers refinement and high-tech for buyers says Northumberland dealer

Morpeth, Northumberland -- (SBWIRE) -- 04/07/2015 -- Launched at the Geneva show as the flagship of the Citroen DS range, the new DS 5 has been voted best production car in the show. Voting by French radio listeners and magazine readers took place over two weeks and there were almost 40 cars in the running across four categories. The DS 5 took 30 percent of the votes in its category.

Citroen has of course revived the DS name from the much-loved 1950s original but the latest DS 5 doesn't hark back to the past. It combines stylish looks with refinement and attention to detail. There's plenty of up to date technology too with LED headlights and a cockpit-style driving position complete with a 7-inch touch screen. It will also have efficient engines and will be available with hybrid 4x4 technology and a 6-speed automatic gearbox. Safety is catered for too with blind spot and lane departure warning systems.

The full specification of the latest car hasn't yet been revealed and it won't be on sale in the UK until the later in the year.
