Motorway offers 50% off incentive to new dealers

Motorway is offering car retailers 50% off broker fees on the first two purchases made through the Motorway Pro platform during October.

The online vehicle stocking source, which links car dealers with private sellers across the UK, said the new promotion is in response to “bumper private stock levels” seen in September.

Motorway reported a 23% increase in used car valued between £10-30k, on the previous month.

Brands such as BMW, Mercedes, Audi, Volkswagen, Ford and Nissan, were particularly strong, said Motorway. 

In June, Motorway celebrated £1.39m of used car sales completed in a single day.

James Bush, sales director at Motorway, said: “The used car industry has flourished since lockdown.

“With consumers looking for more value with their purchases and shying away from more expensive new car finance deals, second-hand car dealers have been enjoying a renaissance over the summer."

Premium used cars have been hailed as "pandemic proof" by Motorway, after the value of Land Rovers, Lexus and Maseratis rose by over 8% year-on-year.

"Our latest promotion, coupled with our contact-free transport service, makes it easier than ever for new dealers to sign up and purchase the stock they need from the comfort of their home or office."

In August, Motorway provided free vehicle collection worth upto £500 for dealers joining its online used car stocking platform.

The offer is open to all new dealers who sign up in October and is valid for any vehicle purchased through Motorway Pro, until the end of the month.
