Can't believe how quiet this board is with Anders Hedin further increasing stake to just over 25%.....

But then again the share price hasn't reacted either.....

Clearly I know nothing!!!!!!!

Have just bought shares in Pendragon. What drew me to them was the increase in the holding of Anders Hedin 15-23% They concentrate on the car sector and have previously bought out companies . Furthermore they also have as a director Finn who was ex CEO of Pendragon who would obviously have deep knowledge of Pendragon

Majority of car buyers say they’ll support local dealers

29/09/2021 in Market Insight

Three quarters of car buyers say they are planning to purchase their next vehicle from a local dealer, according to a What Car? study.

A survey of almost 1,200 in market buyers found that 74% were planning to buy locally, while 84% said they believed it was important to support their local showrooms and garages.

More than a third (34%) of buyers told What Car? they would buy their next car from their local dealer even if one further away had the same model for a lower price. The same percentage of respondents were also willing to buy a different spec of vehicle than they initially intended if their local showroom had it in stock.

Steve Huntingford, editor of What Car?, said: “Our previous research has shown that most buyers research their next vehicle online, but there is clearly strong support for local dealers among in-market buyers when it comes to purchasing their next car.

“Convenience is always a reason why buyers prefer to buy local, but our research shows the same buyers also believe it’s important to support their local dealer and are even willing to wait longer or pay slightly more in order to do so.

“At a time when the industry is embracing online sales, this is a reminder of the role local dealers play for motorists, the loyalty this generates and the benefits of nurturing lasting relationships with customers.”

The research found 37% of in-market buyers are looking to purchase in the next four weeks, and 27% are set to buy within the next three months, confirming a steady stream of demand for dealers in the weeks and months ahead.

Despite a surge in lead times for some new models, 56% of in-market buyers told What Car? they would be willing to wait longer for a vehicle to arrive to a local dealer than buying it elsewhere sooner.

Was the rise yesterday linked to successful Cazoo IPO? They could buy PDG out of their petty cash.

[greg the grinch] 20/8/2021 12:50

Wonder if a VC bid comes.... easy money.

Looks like we are getting ready for the push up to a more realistic long term price.

Used car sales soar amid easing of coronavirus restrictions

Sales of used cars have soared following the easing of COVID-19 restrictions and new car stock shortages, new figures show.

Around 2.2 million used cars were bought between April and June, industry body the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders (SMMT) said.

That is more than double the one million which changed hands during the same period last year, and up 6.6% of pre-pandemic levels in 2019.

It was the used car market's best performance for that three-month period on record.

Meanwhile, petrol and diesel cars made up 96.4% of the used car market during the quarter.

Sales of battery-electric and plug-in hybrid electric cars tripled year on year, but the overall market share of plug-in cars was just 1.3%.
