Buying a used car in Exeter means embracing a bit of everything: city streets, country lanes and Devon’s rolling landscapes. Exeter itself is a lively place, with a steady stream of commuters, students and visitors. You’ll encounter narrow roads in the historic city centre, more open stretches around the outskirts and plenty of hills that test even the burliest engines. While Exeter doesn’t have a Clean Air Zone or congestion charge, air quality is always under review, so choosing a car with low emissions is wise. Out in wider Devon, you’ll often meet steep ascents, twisting rural lanes and the odd muddy track after heavy rain. That’s why cars with good ground clearance, decent grip and responsive steering perform well here. Compact hatchbacks and small crossovers are popular choices in Exeter, thanks to their manoeuvrability for tight parking and enough comfort for longer journeys. However, SUVs and estates are a common sight when it comes to family motoring.
