Swindon has come top in a survey to find out where in the country is the best place to buy or sell a secondhand car.
Gumtree.com data analysis has revealed that the UK car market is divided into hot spots of where people should head to if they are looking to buy for a better price, or sell and bag more bucks.
The town is the best place in the country for secondhand car sellers according to a survey conducted by Gumtree.com.
The average car price in Swindon has increased by 130 per cent in the last 12 months.
Meanwhile, Leeds is the best buyers market in the country with an average price decrease of 47 per cent across all motors on Gumtree.com in the past year.
Head of brand and communications Sam Taylor at Gumtree.com said: “It’s amazing to see such diversity in price appreciation and depreciation across the UK. It seems certain areas are really crying out for used cars while there is an abundance of motors in other areas driving the price of a car down.
“The advantage of Gumtree.com is that we directly link together those selling and buying, which means there are no hidden costs or any money lost to a middle party, saving money for the buyer and making a better profit for the seller.”
