A whopping 68 per cent of new cars driven away from forecourts in the last year were funded from finance sold in car dealerships, research has shown.

And increasingly drivers are opting to use Personal Contract Plans to get a new car every three years or so, while putting down relatively small deposits and paying just a few hundred pounds a month for them - with a growing trend of never actually owning the car outright.

The hard facts in the UK is that the economy is in shreds!

But people still have to travel and for millions renting a car is the answer – especially as very few want to have money tied up in a car – when they do not know whether they still have a job when they go to work every day!
