When you're buying a used car, you've got a lot to weigh up: age, mileage, make, model, fuel type, gearbox, body style, spec. But some of these matter way more than others when it comes to price.
And that's exactly what we wanted to find out. We looked at 85,726 used cars for sale across the UK last summer, to see what pushes the price up the most. The result is our Used Car Price Report 2026 — and we're excited to share it! It shows what's happening in today's used car market, and what it means for you.
What the report looks at
Our report answers a set of practical questions you're probably asking yourself:
- What has the biggest impact on the price you pay?
- How quickly does a car lose value as it gets older?
- Which makes hold their value best?
- How do electric, hybrid, petrol and diesel cars compare?
- What does today's used car market look like?
- Which features push the price up?
- Where might you find better value?
