New Car advice needed

Grizebeck

Just sold a DS3 as had issues which would start to develop so got rid
Had C2s previously.
My budget is up to 15K
Petrol only
But apart from that i have no idea what to look at, all i know is i want a smallish car thats quite nippy and fun to drive (loved the C2)
Any ideas please!

Look at small Japanese / Korean cars.

Suzuki Swift and Hyundai i10 are well regarded. I have driven neither and couldn't say whether they are fun.

My wife really likes our Honda Jazz. It's a 1.5 hybrid. 120 HP in a small package means that it is pretty quick, but for me it lacks road feel and it has an image problem in this country.

Another for the Suzuki Swift.
I've driven a few and they handle great and are pretty nippy due to how light they are.

They are mild hybrids but they return the same sort of mpg figures as things like the Yaris full hybrid.

Inside they are fairly hardwearing rather than plush.
If budget is tight it's a good choice.

If you want a bit of style and a plush interior, have a look at the 2019 on Renault Clio.
I have one at the moment and it rides and handles well and is very smart inside. Been totally reliable and great on fuel.

Have a look at the Hyundai i10 or Kia Picanto (pretty much the same car under the body) - I've driven the Picanto a number of times and liked it.  If they're too small, then try the next size up e.g. Hyundai i20.

Then it sounds like no ideas will make any difference

Older 3 pot 1.0 turbo Picanto. Ideally the GT-S version.
