Nearly New And Used Car Deals January 2025
Buying a nearly new or used car is a great way to both save money and potentially get a more upscale and powerful car than you might be able to afford if buying new.
Buying a used car means someone else has taken the initial hit on depreciation, or the money a car loses as soon as it’s driven off the forecourt. Even by choosing a nearly-new model instead of a brand new car can save thousands. Choose a car that’s a few years old and you may be saving a five-figure sum compared to a new car.
A nearly new car is generally one that is less than a year old, and has covered less than 10,000 miles. The bulk of the new car warranty will still be valid, so you’ll enjoy many of the benefits of a new car, without the price tag.
Used cars can be anything from a few years to a decade old or more. Here at heycar, we stick to only the best quality cars, which are under eight years old and have fewer than 100,000 miles on the clock.
Because such used cars are older and have covered more miles, the prices will be lower, as depreciation has had longer to do its magic.
You can get finance on a nearly new or used car, too. This can take the form of a traditional car loan, but used car PCP finance is also becoming popular. This is where you finance part of the car’s value, with a balloon payment at the end, making monthly payments cheaper.
To highlight used car PCP finance, heycar listings show a bespoke calculation for those who want to pay monthly. Owners can then buy, swap or return.
By buying from heycar, you also have the reassurance that every car has been quality-checked for your peace of mind. You also get a warranty with every car, a 10-day money-back guarantee, and dedicated customer service.
This means that even though you’re not buying a brand new car, you’re still getting a lot of the reassurance that new car buyers enjoy. We also make it easy and simple to both find the right nearly new or used car for you, and buy it online if you prefer.
