Positive annual sales for the UK Motor Trade

The annual figures for new car sales are up by nearly 5% on the vehicle sales for the first ten months of 2009. This is good news for Car Dealers, however figures for October were much lower than last year, as the scrappage scheme was still active in the latter months of last year. This makes the overall annual increase all the more impressive and provides much for motor traders to be positive about for 2011.

The total number of new car registrations in 2010 is expected to top 2 million in the UK. Industry analysts expect continued improvements in the Motor Trade market, driven by improving consumer confidence and modest economic growth to fuel higher sales for the coming year.

Currently the top five selling cars in the UK (for 2010) are:
  1. Ford Fiesta
  2. Volkswagen Golf
  3. Vauxhall Astra
  4. BMW 3 Series
  5. Ford Focus
