Prices rise with demand in spring and summer. Autumn and winter offer more discounts on both new and used cars.
Car purchases are usually planned in advance, and everyone wants to save money. MSG Equipment’s blog looks at when prices tend to be lowest.
- Don’t expect bargains on models that are in high demand right now; sellers may also push expensive extras.
- Spring and summer are the least favourable: seasonal and new drivers enter the market, pushing demand and prices up.
- Autumn and winter are better, with more discounts and extras on both new and used cars.
- New models unsold during the year can be heavily discounted the following year.
