Hi,
My wife has just been offered a new job that requires her to have a 'reliable' car and i am looking for suggestions for her.
She has a 2001 VW Beetle that is ok, but for this position she will need something new and trustworthy, especially as in the new job she will be nursing people in their own homes that have Cancer.
The plan was to sell her Beetle and give her the FSI project, but as it needs a little tlc, i think the best option is for her to take the company car option. The FSI i will keep.
Now she hasn't been driving that long (1 year) so she would like something that is low to insure, is of a decent build quality, good mpg return and is relatively small, but has room for her work bags, shopping and preferably a 5 door car.
Satnav and aircon as options, although she can use her iPhone as a satnav if needed.
We have been to a few dealers to see which she prefers, so would like some suggestions on what to go and take a look at.
She will be stuck with this car for two years, so i want to make sure she chooses the right option
The ones we have looked at are...
1.0 VW UP! Move Up
Peugeot 108
New Clio
Nissan Juke 1.2
New Toyota Aygo
New Citroen C1
Peugeot 208
Next cars to look at are...
New Fiesta
New Corsa
What else would you suggest?
