You have probably heard more than a few times that one of the best values from Manchester Used Cars is the certified used vehicles.  Buying a certified used car can save you tons of money compared to buying a brand new vehicle and the process of certifying the used vehicle will typically extend the warranty a considerable amount.  The auto industry has noted an increase in business at places like Wallingford Used Car Dealers because buyers are trying to save as much money as possible in our recovering economy, so there are more used cars being sold than in prior years.  You can still get a great deal at Executive Auto Dealership, but the monthly payment is likely to be higher than if you bought a used vehicle.

Over the course of 2010 there were 1,637,761 certified used vehicles sold, showing a dramatic increase of 7% compared to 2009.  This data was put together by the Automotive News Data Center and Auto Data Corp.  A lot of consumers were scared to take out a loan on a brand new vehicle during 2010 and the confidence associated with certified used vehicles makes buying one truly a no-brainer.  It is anticipated that certified pre-owned (CPO) vehicles will continue to be a popular choice for 2011.  Drivers want new vehicles; they just don’t want brand new vehicles.

Interestingly enough, Toyota actually was the highest seller for their CPO vehicles compared to the rest of the automotive brands.  Their sales of CPO cars jumped 19% compared to 2009 and they sold 315,440.  Some analysts might have thought that Toyota would be towards the bottom of the sales statistics given their recall reputation for 2010, but buyers still have tons of confidence in their product.  Toyota continues to impress buyers and is even extending their comprehensive warranty on their new vehicle purchases to 12 months or 12,000 miles, an increase from the standard 3 months 3,000 miles.
