Cheapest NEW small cars in the UK
My daughter is taking her lessons & is hoping to pass her test in September.
Shes looking at small cheap new cars. If you post advising her NOT to buy a new car you are wasting your time, she wants it & I think there are worse things she could spend her money on & its good for a young female to have a safe reliable car.
I've got a list of the cheapest small cars in order, but I'm sure I read somewhere you could get a new Ford Ka for £4,500 & according to my list its a lot more, so am I missing any bargains?

Local Ford dealer is currently offering Fiesta 1.25 Style Climate 5dr pre reg 08 plate 10 miles only on clock @ £7,250. Sadly probably all will be gone by Sept. It is a "run out" model.If you are querying your Council Tax band would you please state whether you are in England, Scotland or Wales0

I must have been dreaming then, about the ka for £4,500:o
Thank you0 -
I would go for a Aygo/C1/107.
It's one of the few cars with street cred for dem yoofs.
£7195 list. £5973 on Drive The DealThe man without a signature.0 -
The Ka is also due for replacement so there are bargains out there. What this dealer also had was brand unreg new Fiesta 1.25 3dr for under £6K, but if you read the windscreen sticker, after 3 yrs you either handed car back or paid balance of pre-purchase agreed value and kept car, or even got money back to be used against another new car purchase. Maybe the deal on the Ka you saw was on a similar basisIf you are querying your Council Tax band would you please state whether you are in England, Scotland or Wales0

autobytel.co.uk have the Ford Ka at £4788.
I've bought my Ka from them. You order online, and they put you in touch with your closest Inchcape dealer with that price.0 -
Hi
