Used Car Market - Difference between US and UK?

[Nexus5]

I noticed a chart on Twitter (https://twitter.com/mikekilinski/status/1292831059122429952) showing a rise in Used Vehicle prices (more demand than supply) despite COVID19 etc. Do people think there could be a situation like that here?

FWIW I think US and UK markets quite different, because anecdotally seems like a lot of cars for sale on Autotrader / PH etc. Also US has more of a driving culture than here.

I'm personally interested in picking up something myself but probably feel its too soon to buy.

Thanks

Interesting post, not sure if anyone has an opinion on this?

Many States don't have the equivalent of an MOT, and many have no emissions testing. That's probably why we have more junkers on the road and for sale.
So you can buy either of these, get the title put in your name, insure it, and drive it away.

The US and UK markets are completely and utterly different so there is no point comparing them to be honest.
