Used Cars in Brighton

A much-loved seaside resort on England’s south coast, Brighton blends vibrant city life with the calm of the Sussex countryside. That means driving here can be a unique experience, taking you from tight city streets and more open coastal roads to winding drives through the hills. For life in the city centre, expect a lot of short urban journeys mixed with occasional longer drives out to the South Downs. Parking can be tricky in central areas, so a car that’s easy to manoeuvre – and not too thirsty on fuel – is a wise pick. There's currently no Clean Air Zone enforced in Brighton for private cars, but with the city’s active stance on sustainability and an eye on air quality, low and ultra-low emission cars are increasingly popular. That efficiency comes in handy for keeping costs down in stop-start traffic, while the hilly terrain rewards cars with good handling and visibility. Small hatchbacks and crossovers are frequently spotted weaving along the seafront, but there’s also a push towards electric vehicles, encouraged by the excellent charging infrastructure.

All sorts of second hand cars Brighton has for sale can be found, from convertibles to vans. If you're after a classic motor, use the search tools to only select older vehicles, or pick out ones with fuel or transmission types you require. All the used cars in Brighton available through AA Cars come with free breakdown cover.

  • Are there any driving restrictions in Brighton?

    You won’t find a Clean Air Zone or congestion charge for private cars in Brighton. However, various city centre streets have restrictions or one-way systems, and some areas are reserved for buses, taxis or cycles. Always check the latest notices and signs before driving into new parts of town. There is a low emissions zone enforced, but it's only relevant for buses.

  • What is the best car type for driving in Brighton?

    A compact, fuel-efficient car is well-matched to Brighton’s narrower lanes and busy centre. Small hatchbacks and crossovers are especially popular, offering a balance of city agility and comfort for trips along the coast or out into the countryside. Electric cars are increasingly practical too, thanks to the good charging network.

  • Are there any charges to be aware of in Brighton?

    While there’s no urban emissions charge, parking charges apply across much of the city – especially in central and seafront zones. Some controlled parking areas require permits for residents, and visitor parking time limits are common.

  • What is the most popular car in Brighton?

    Reliable and efficient small cars, such as the Ford Fiesta, Volkswagen Polo and Mini hatchback are a common sight in Brighton. Their size makes them well-suited to tight urban parking and twisty city roads, with running costs that stay low even in stop-start driving conditions.

  • Are electric cars suitable for Brighton?

    Yes – Brighton is a leader nationally for public charging points, making EV ownership increasingly practical. Many on-street parking bays now include charging, and new rapid chargers are steadily being installed. For short commutes and city life, electric cars are an especially strong option.
