How fast your make and model sells

Fastest and slowest sellers in your area, with the typical days to sell for the model you are about to buy. Built from sold cars across hundreds of models and towns.

Priced against what is on sale near you

Stock Advisor compares each of your cars with local stock and flags what looks overpriced, well positioned or undersupplied. Oversupply alerts show when an area is full of the same car.

How we count: a car is counted as sold when it comes off the dealer’s own website, and “typical” is the middle car. Figures run from 1 July 2026 and refresh every night. See the Local Car Sales market page
