Cheap Car Exportation - New Used Exports UK

UK NEW AND USED CARS EXPORTS NEWS!! 

The UK Automotive Exportation sector is a global leader in process and product innovation of New and Used Second Hand Autos to the rest of the world. Within the European Union, the UK’s Exportation industry has the best car and commercial vehicle makers and exporters. British citizens (English – England, Welsh – Wales, Scottish – Scotland and Irish – Ireland) bought over 2.5 million new cars in the UK last year, 0.4 million European Cars and 5.6 million used second hand cars. Cheap car and auto production is rising since joining the European Union, now exporting about 1.67 million cheap units. New and Used Second Hand Commercial vehicle exporters and passenger vehicles production, looks set to exceed 600,000 auto units for the first time since 1998.

In the recent years, the exportation of new and used cars from the United Kingdom (UK) to the rest of the world (including Japan) has significantly increased. This Exportation success is in contrast to past years where the bulk of vehicles being exported from exporters in Europe, were mainly from Germany. Japan however, still dominates the world’s bulk source for the exports of cheap new and used cars either second hand, or from car Auctions. These cheap Japanese vehicles to many countries worldwide including Britain and the rest of European Union, was due to the reliability that these cars have and the cheaper costs of running Japanese vehicles in general.

The purchase of second hand cars from Auctions and Auction houses such as the British Car Auctions has significantly dropped with the increased strength of the British pound. Joining of the European Union has also reduced popularity of Car Auctions in the UK because cheaper Cars can be exported and Imported from Europe – Germany in Particular - without restriction and risks associated with car Auctions. The sector now accounts for over 9% of our total export of goods. Over the last 5 years UK has exported, on average, over a million cheaper cars a year - a fivefold increase in real terms since 1986 and twice the amount from Germany. Japanese, German, African and American manufacturers import cheaper British built cars into their home markets and over 70% of UK Car Exports go to Europe, including Germany.

UK CAR MANUFACTURING INDUSTRY

‘British Japanese’ Honda and their English brokers - whose Swindon facility is the UK's largest exporter of passenger cars to Japan, America, Asia Middle East and Africa. British MG Rover and their brokers - whose joint venture with Shanghai Automotive Industry Corporation will help to fund the exporting and development of new vehicle models at cheaper manufacturing costs. ‘British Japanese’ Toyota and their English brokers whose £50 million investment at Burnaston has raised the exporting capacity by more than 50,000 and created 500 jobs;

‘British American’ Ford and their brokers - where 25% of the company's entire global engine production, and all its diesel engines, now come from the UK at a much cheaper rate than anywhere else on the world. These cheap rates ensure that the United Kingdom (UK) is ahead of the rest of the manufactures in car exporting. British GM Vauxhall and their Brokers - where production at Ellesmere Port is to be expanded to meet demand for the new Astra cars. ‘British Japanese’ Nissan and their English brokers who blazed the trail to the UK in the early 1980s, and continues to run the most productive car manufacturing site in Europe.

Great Britain - Especially the English industry is continuing to show a firm commitment to the science budget - more than double since 1997 to £3.3 billion by 2007/8. The English, Scottish, Irish and Welsh secured £12million for the hugely successful Manufacturing Advisory Service - a program that has boosted manufacturing by more than £53million, delivering an average £100,000 added value to every manufacturer that goes through the full program.

CITROEN SAXO

With very popular sporting models, a keen pricing policy and one of the most entertaining drives within the super-mini sector, Citroen's baby has plenty of Saxo appeal – especially with young drivers. The most popular models are the sports-oriented VTR and VTS, plus the warm 1.4 Furio. Saxos are not immune to wearing out, so trim and consumable parts need checking carefully – a fact borne out by our Driver Power survey, where the Saxo was worst built car in the Top 100.

Look at bodywork, as the thin metal picks up parking dents easily. Check panel gaps for signs of crash damage. Spare wheel is vulnerable to theft, so make sure it's not missing. Engines are usually good for more than 100,000 miles, but service history is vital, especially on diesels. A few minor electrical faults have been reported, such as blowing fuses – especially on the rear wash/wipe. Electric windows might appear slow, but they were never that fast! Check steering and suspension for signs of a hard life. Diesels, VTRs and VTSs may have been abused. Power-steering pump may suffer leak.

The trade bible says big discounts when new mean the Saxo depreciates heavily. Two-year-old models are good value. All are in low insurance groups, so appeal to younger drivers. The VTR or VTS are wise buys as they are easy to sell on at a good price.When Rebecca Southgate's Citroen 2CV collapsed in 1998, she realised it would be cheaper in the long run to buy a new car than keep patching up the 'tin snail'. But the primary school teacher from north London thought nothing could match the character of her old car – until she saw her Saxo in a local showroom. Not only did the bright yellow Open Scandal special edition look suitably wacky, but it even had a full-length fabric roof, similar to the 2CV's. She said: "The top is great in summer, but leaks in heavy rain." The car has been reliable, but the spare wheel was pinched from beneath the boot floor and cost £100 to replace.

THE FUTURE OF THE UK CAR INDUSTRY (EXPORTATION AND MANUFACTURE)

It is anticipated that the Exporting of New vehicles and second hand used cars and the funding for the Technology Strategy will increase by £140m per annum by 2007/8. Taken with the re-direction of existing spend on exports innovation, this will increase spending on the Technology Strategy to more than £250m per annum on exports, by 2007/8. Helping British (English, Scottish and Irish) Car manufacturers and exporters pull through new technologies and processes from the science base and turn them into competitive exporters advantage.
