  • Get a 1.3 the 1.2 was slightly underpowered. Also consder a Vauxhall Agila, same car, some had better spec and depreciates faster. They also came in more suitable colours! The vast majority of WagonR's sold were in Mimosa Yellow which is NASTY!

    Look out for Werther's Originals lurking in the upholstery.

    Otherwise if you are, or are prepared to be thought of as, an old person with no interest in their car as a style statement then its a cheap reliable means of transport.

    Sometimes there are debates about whether it is a good idea to buy a 'low mileage, one elderly owner' vehicle. With these it isn't an option.
