Used car sales reach record levels

Updated



Sales of used cars in the UK reached record levels in 2009 according to British Car Auctions, the £34 billion-worth of sales easily beating 2008's £28 billion figure.

This is despite a reduction in the number of used cars actually sold, the rise coming as a result of the higher average price paid per car, which climbed from £4868 in 2008 to £5422 in 2009.
