Hi all,
A friend has asked me advice on what kind of car he should get as a cheap-but-reliable method of going about 300kms x 2 once a week, under some misapprehension that I know these things.
Off the top of my head I'm thinking a small-ish (but not tiny, for stability and ride comfort reasons) car, Korean or Japanese, and ideally no more than 5 - 10 years old, but apart from that I'm having a hard time narrowing it down because there are so many options. Currently in mind in no particular order:
- Toyota Corolla
- Honda Jazz
- Mitsubishi Lancer
- Hyundai i30
- Kia Rio (Cerato?)
- Mazda 3
- Suzuki Swift
- Nissan… what's their model one size above the Micra?
Hoping to narrow that down instead of telling my friend to basically put in a dozen different models into carsales.
Thanks in advance!
My 1999 Nissan Pulsar is still going well :D I bought it with 172000 on the clock in 2006 (was a hire car), so I wouldn't necessarily write off a high mileage car if the price is right.
PS - can get a gel cushion for under $30 to improve seat comfort if necessary
