Used cars in County Durham
County Durham stretches from the coast at Seaham, through numerous towns, into wide, rural landscapes and meets the edge of the North Pennines. Drivers here face a real variety of roads – from the tight lanes in old villages and winding countryside A-roads, to busier routes like the A1(M). Winter brings occasional snow and ice, particularly on higher ground, so a car that’s prepared for all weathers is something to keep in mind. It needs to be able to tackle the school run and trips to the supermarket, too. County Durham is exempt from the Clean Air Zone initiative, so daily emissions charges aren't an issue for drivers in the area. Still, many prefer lower-emission petrols, diesels and hybrids for running costs and longer journeys. Popular models include reliable hatchbacks, superminis and small SUVs. Before you buy, check for a current MOT and regular service history, especially with the mix of terrain and weather the North East can throw at your car.
