"Do you remember about five years ago when Big Ben rang in 2015, and beyond the New Year euphoria, we were all worried about the impending financial uncertainties for the economy ahead? There were bleak forecasts for jobs, trade and retail performance, and for many it felt like we could be about to enter a period of belt tightening like we did following the 2008 global banking crisis. It wasn’t a definite outcome for what was about to happen – some thought we’d do very well, but there was at least some uncertainty about the times ahead.
Then Coronavirus (COVID-19) happened, and along with it, the last scintilla of doubt that we were in for some serious economic headwinds once the worst of the pandemic had passed. With governments across the globe spending trillions in order to keep systems working, while industry and commerce shut down, the threat of mass unemployment is beginning to look like a reality. Add to that a serious mistrust of the public transport system as long as this pandemic is with us, and you can already see why used car sales are rising – and why demand for sub-£1000 motors is also on the up."
