Is Nov a good time to buy used?

Is November a good time to buy a used 3 - 4 year old car? Should we wait until January 2019?

Our answer:

Hi Robbie,

No, there’s no real reason to wait – the introduction of the 191 plates will not significantly affect used values of cars of the age you’re looking at, while car traders often see a drop off in business in the run-up to Christmas. This is good news for buyers like you, as you’re more likely to be able to drive a hard bargain/deal as a result of slower trade.
