Salary benchmarks
Our take
Used car marketplace Cazoo has had quite the journey, having originally been founded as MOTORS by a partnership between the Daily Mail and General Trust before its acquisition by Cox Automotive and, subsequently, Gumtree. Now, it's an independent used car marketplace that hosts hundreds of thousands of used cars, as well as reviews, guides and advice.
With fifteen years of experience behind it, Cazoo has capitalised on its ownership journey to become the go-to used car marketplace for the UK. Operating within a challenging economy, the business is in a strong position, having bought the "household name" Cazoo brand, which went into administration in 2024, and adopted the name as its own. This suggests it will continue to maintain its nation-leading position in the sector.
