---I'm still learning the names of cars as your can see. Thanks for replying. My budget would be 8,000 maybe up to 10,000. I've been told that buying a second-hand car is just buying other prople's trouble , so i want to spend a decent amount in the hope of getting a good car.
car bought from a dealer has to be perfect, so if your buying other peoples problems, its thier problem, not yours! (well for the first year anyway)
as for french cars dropping in price too fast, that is very very true, its scary. but this can be to your advantage....
if your buying secondhand and planing on keeping for a few years, i'd go with a
peugeot 307 or renault megane,
you could easily buy a 04 petrol or an 03 diesel for 10,000
they come gadget packed as standard
alloys
aircon
automatic wipers
automatic lights
electric mirrors
trip computer
stuff that golf owners would have to pay heavily for
Both these cars are rightly slated for horrendous build quality and general unreliability. Gadgets, bells and whistles are no good if your car won't run.
VW's are over rated and over priced.
Mainstream Jap. cars are likely be reliable, but will be utterly uninspiring to drive (Corolla). Mazda make a few goodun's.
Surprised nobody has mentioned a Skoda Octavia - huge boot
they are terribal statistically, but if ya buy one they are great, and really cheap beause people are afraid they will break down
I did 80k on a clio i bought new
brother has done 148k on a 1.4 307 and only problems are the odd expensive service and the indictors don't turn themselves off,
even new golfs give problems nowadays
Corollas are boring to look at and worse to drive in, you can get killed if ya fall asleep behind the wheel, lol
