Clive Sutton launches new brokerage

The brokerage, which goes live on 6 July, will sell owners' cars, helping them prepare them to get the "best possible" market price. It deals with buyers and acts as their personal agent.

Hassle free service

This, said the company, "takes away the hassle" of selling privately, without having to accept low trade prices". The brokerage can also help buyers source cars.

"This exclusive one-on-one service reflects the level of personalisation people now demand from the motor industry," the company said.

"It reflects how car dealers have had to change. The market is markedly different today to what it was just six months ago - and it is set for more change in the future, too.

Credit crunch

"With the tightening of lending criteria and the abundance of negative equity, the conventional part-exchange deal no longer works for many owners and dealers alike."

Clive Sutton is also launching a quarterly market report to give consumers an insight into the luxury car sector. The report will include:

• An in depth insight into key luxury car brands - Aston Martin, Bentley, Ferrari, Porsche and Rolls Royce
• Comparisons between asking prices and trade prices. What should customers be looking to pay?
• What cars are hot and what are not?
• Where the smart money is going, and where buyers should avoid
• The real costs of owning and running a luxury vehicle

The report will be available as a free download from the next week on the Clive Sutton website - www.clivesutton.co.uk
