Buying Cars Online

UK or European Import?

Given the increasing demand for cheap car imports, it's not surprising that many companies, including some very well known brand names, have set up web sites to help motorists buy from abroad. These promise significant discounts on UK dealer prices and they take care of the whole transaction, from finding the right car to delivery direct to your door.

The downside is that you'll probably have to wait for your car. Some web sites are quoting up to five months delivery lead-time for certain models. If you visit a site supplying cars from the UK you could have your car within the week and you should still be able to make some saving on the recommended retail price. In particular car supermarkets with their bulk buying power are able to offer lower prices than the main dealers.
