USED VOLVO CAR

Volvo has long cast off its reputation for being boring and conservative, and the upswing in popularity of its new cars over the past few years appears to have carried across to the second-hand market.

The XC range is one to have done well recently, with more than 100 fetching far better than market prices at a recent auction.

Selwyn Cooper, Volvo Car UK’s national corporate operations manager, said that the demand for used Volvos reflected the respect that the brand has developed as a whole.

"Everybody knows that used values are a true measure of a car’s desirability in the second hand market, and both the XC60 and XC90 are becoming consistently sought after by used car buyers," he said.

It’s not only the XC models that are doing well though, as there are good deals to be found on some of the other stalwarts in the Volvo range. At the upper end of the scale there are some nice C70s coming onto the second hand market, and at the more budget-friendly price bracket it’s a good time to be looking at the S40 or V50.

The S40 is a great smaller-sized family sedan that you can pick up at a specialist USED VOLVO CAR dealer such as Taggarts for prices starting just under the £7500 mark, while the versatile V50 sportswagon with the 2.0 litre diesel engine can be found for under £10,000. It’s also worth looking out for the desirable C30, which delivers a lot at a price of around £10,495.
