Drivers 'registering greater demand for alternative fuel, hybrid cars'
There has been an increase in demand for alternative fuels and hybrid vehicles, it has been claimed.
According to research conducted by British Car Auctions (BCA), a 3.5 point drop in diesel values has been registered since January this year, putting 2008's level at 92 per cent.
For June, the amount also stands at 92 per cent after a three-point fall in the last month, the body added.
It may be that female motorists are turning their back on traditional fuelling methods in order to save money and go green with female friendly services.
"There is a groundswell of interest in alternative fuelled vehicles and this is reflected in the strong performance being recorded against guide values in a market that is otherwise seeing values in decline," said BCA communications director Tony Ganon.
Meanwhile, the BCA's latest used car index shows that values have fallen over quarter two to £5,532.
