Hi everybody,
I am planning to buy a used car for my wife and after doing some research I shortlisted 5 models.
1. Peugeot 206 2002-2003
2 Fiat Punto 2003
3 Renault Clio 2002
4 Ford Ka 2003
5 Vauxhall corsa 2002
These cars are based on average mileage of upto 60,000 and are in range of £2000
Can somebody please help me decide the one which is most reliable and economical to maintain and run?
Thanks
jatt

A few things:
1) This may be far better in another section, advice about cars isnt really anything to do with students
2) We really need more information, such as are they petrol, engine size etc
The one i'd pick from the lot is the 206, I find Peugeot's nice to drive and exceptionally reliable. I'd probabaly avoid the Fiat, as I dont think they quite have the reliability of the others. But the other ones are all much of a much-ness. I dont like driving Ford's, but thats just a personal preference.0 -
Sorry about it, I will post this in motoring section
Thanks0
