Looking For A New Car? Make The Dealers Earn Their Money.

The buyer is put firmly in control when using a new concept in digital motoring. Source My Car is a unique alternative to trawling through pages of car adverts and motoring websites. Rather than finding a proverbial needle in a haystack the buyer can now list the car they are looking for, i.e. make, engine size, colour, and the traders then show the buyer what they have on offer via the website.
Figures released by SMMT and Experian show used car sales in the second quarter of 2013 grew 4.53%, reaching 1,804,871 units, so the used car market is on the upturn. With so much choice and every penny to be spent wisely it is important for the buyer to make the right choice, and that just got easier for the consumer.
Rayleigh based entrepreneurs Shelley Clarke and Dawn Willis had their ‘light bulb’ moment when they had the chore of sourcing the car they wanted to buy, which ended up being miles away. They wondered how the traders could do more of the work in finding them, and sourcemycar.co.uk was born.
The USP for the consumer is that all the communication is via the website, this will stop the buyer being bombarded with junk emails and communication direct from traders, all they get to see is the choice of the car that they are looking for, then the power is in the buyers’ hands as to whether they want to view.
SMC think that their website will change the way you look for a used car on the internet, and with an already large social media following and buyers and traders signing up to the site daily the future of motoring is certainly bright.
