I’m hoping my aging Civic lasts me till used car prices have come down a bit, was looking when I was bored at work this morning at smaller cars as one of the belts decided to go on my brothers car last night (luckily not the timing belt). There was a 2016 VW Up! for £10 k a 6-6 & 1/2 year old city car that probably cost about £14-£15k when new is still around £10k.
Even Fiestas (of which there is naturally loads) you’re looking at a fair price unless you go for something that’s been in a crash or has 125k miles on the clock for cars in the 2015-16 age range, I find I’m continuously kicking myself for not biting the bullet and getting something newer pre Covid, even an ST3 Fiesta was a reasonable price back then, granted it’d have probably been nicked by now but still
This was the Up! In question, https://www.autotrader.co.uk/car-detail ... 2012169402
