January surge in used car sales
01 Feb 2012
January surge in used car sales
The start of 2012 has seen a 22% surge in demand for used cars in Windsor Motors as customers look for better value.
According to Windsor Motors CEO Gabriel Keane "We are delighted with the positive results in new car sales but it is in used car sales that we have seen a big shift during January 2012. Customers have less disposable income and the used car option is a more viable one. During 2012 however we are likely to see a decline in the availability of used cars due to the increase in demand and the lack of trade-ins as fewer customers buy new cars".
January new car sales grew slightly for Windsor Motors and are in line with the market.

With branches covering Dublin, Wicklow, Cork and Galway their location, great prices and 1,000 used cars in stock make them the motor dealer of choice.

Peugeot 5008 is Ireland’s Best Selling Compact 7-Seater MPV
23 Jan 2012
The Peugeot 5008, Continental Irish Family Car of the Year 2011, is Ireland’s
best-selling compact 7-Seater MPV. Figures released from the SIMI for 2011
show that 391 Peugeot 5008s were registered in 2011 to take 28% of its
segment, clearly ahead of its nearest competitor the Ford Grand C-Max at
299 units.
Des Cannon, Peugeot Sales and Marketing Director said, “The multi-award
winning Peugeot 5008, the new benchmark for compact seven-seater cars in
Ireland, attracted many new customers to the Peugeot brand in 2011,
looking for a stylish, economical and practical solution to family motoring.
We’re delighted with this strong sales performance and look forward to
further success in 2012.”
The striking people carrier from Peugeot offers drivers a raised driving
position giving excellent visibility, and ergonomically positioned controls.
Passengers enjoy a bright and spacious interior and easily access the third
row seats from the second row with one easy movement. Third row
passengers are given more legroom thanks to footwells, not usually a
feature in three-row vehicles.
The 5008 has set new standards in the MPV segment for safety, offering
parents more peace of mind: curtain airbags protect all three rows of
passengers and three ISOFIX child seat fixtures are housed in row 2.
Standard safety equipment also includes ESP, ABS, ASR, electronic brake
force distribution, driver / passenger airbags, automatic electric parking
brake with hill assist function and fasten seat belt warnings on all seats.
Flexibility is a key strength of the 5008. Flat-folding rear seats maximise the
load area when needed and the load area of the 5008 offers a generous
capacity, ranging from 758 litres to 823 litres with the third row seats folded.
This capacity increases to 2506 litres with the second row seats folded
away, making it one of the largest in the sector.
The 5008 is available in Ireland with a choice of two engines: a 1.6 HDi FAP
112bhp 6-speed manual and a 1.6 HDi FAP 112bhp 6-speed electronically
controlled 6-speed Ecomatique, both qualifying for Band B €225 annual
road tax. The Eco gearbox offers a real alternative to automatic drivers faced
with high road tax costs in Ireland.
The Peugeot 5008 retails from €27,690 plus dealer delivery related charges.
