  • Without looking too hard i've found 2 09 plate Urbans for sale with 37k miles at £3995 on ebay classifieds.

    You don't mention mileage of the car offered.

    I have no idea if Urban comes with aircon, but would urge you to find any of the three models (107 C1 Aygo) with aircon if you can, the car is a bit of a greenhouse and will be quite unpleasant in the summer wthout.

    Check insurance. They may not be as cheap to insure as other cars in higher insurance bands as lots of inexperienced drivers choose them as first cars.

    Thanks Davey JP

    Hastings are showing £1050 comp (£350 excess) for social and commuting. don't know if that's good, but it was less than I was expecting

    Thanks again, I thought Hastings had a goodish rep - I will double check. We are in no hurry to get DD mobile she has some more saving up to do

    Try Tesco too, they were the cheapest for my partner when she got her first car. Also were the cheapest for me, my dad and a few mates. £50 Quidco on top too.

    Regarding the 107, they were selling the 107 Urban lite brand new almost two years ago for £6k and the Access was £5695 only last year.
    £4k seems a bit much for one 6 1/2 years old later.

    Yes - have done a bit more research now - I think closer to £3000 for that spec and miles - certainly if I'm prepared to look nationwide I can get a 10 or 11 plate with 20K miles for that money
