More women are becoming girl racers than ever before, according to Carcraft Rochdale. Female drivers receive great deals on car insurance for women so it makes perfect sense that there has been an increase in the number of ladies buying high-spec cars.
According to recent findings from Carcraft, the Rochdale-based used car dealers, sales increased by 42% in 2007 for women aged 17-25, especially when it came to buying BMWs and Audis.
The general manager at Carcraft said: "This growth may surprise many people as men have traditionally been the gender most interested in cars. However, we are seeing an increasing number of female customers who are very knowledgably and passionate about the car they drive and want to have something that makes them stand out from the crowd."
Commenting on the story, a spokeswoman for CoverGirl Car Insurance Services, the car insurance for women provider, said: "It's great to see women are taking a keen interest in cars. There's a good reason why females get cheap motor insurance quotes and this story just goes to show why that is."
