What is a used car supermarket?

If you are looking for a car, you may have seen the term ‘car supermarket’ popping up here and there, and even on our website too. But what is a car supermarket? Let us explain…

It is a term that has been around for decades but that doesn’t always mean everyone is familiar with it. A car supermarket is a large car dealership, with plenty of used cars in stock and a team of experts ready to help.

More often than not, a used car supermarket will have a lot of nearly new cars for sale, as well as used ones too. Nearly new is defined as a car under three years old, but not one that is brand new from a main dealer. There are lots of advantages to shopping nearly new, with the main one being that they are very competitively priced and have suffered most of their depreciation already.

As for a car supermarket, there are many advantages to buying your next used car from one. Here are a few of them…

A used car supermarket has a huge range of used cars in stock, which means you get the pick of the crop and can easily compare your options on site, instead of having to drive around from dealer to dealer to view the kind of cars you are interested in.

Another advantage is that there are finance experts on site who will be able to help you crunch the numbers, without waiting for a third party or having to call a different company to sort the figures and facts out.

One more is that car supermarkets are usually extremely well connected and can source vehicles quickly and easily, as they have a great range of contacts from the amount of cars they deal in. On this note, the cars are always competitively priced as well, as they often get better deals when they buy the cars and can pass those savings onto the customer.
