It was first reported that limo hire companies were not as badly hit as some other sectors during the credit crunch. However it is now being reported that more and more second hand limousines are being sold. This is due to hire companies folding in the credit crunch. However, the rise in second hand limos isn’t all due to companies folding under the pressure. Some companies are instead selling their old limos to fund newer ones.

Limo hire has increased in popularity over the last few years and the demand has slightly changed too. These days’ customers expect the best. After all, they are paying a good price so they want a good quality service. This includes luxury seating, built in DVD players and a built in bar. The trend is modern limousines, not traditional ones. Therefore the hire companies have to find a way of funding these newer, more expensive models.

Finally many UK limo hire companies are buying their limos from second hand companies. Companies that have survived are taking full advantage from the ones that didn’t by purchasing their old cars. So the credit crunch has had an effect on the limo hire business and many companies now have to be clever when it comes to improving their income.
