What cheap little cars should I be looking at as a temporary second car to use for a year or two? Just need to get to work every now and then, no long trips. Nissan micra, Toyota yaris, Audi A2, Renault clio spring to mind. Old Japanese cars seem good value, the A2s seem to be more expensive and approaching classic status. Think I’ve asked about A2s here before a few years ago but never went ahead irritatingly enough.
Left field but I have a huge soft spot for our Daihatsu Sirion 1.3. Bought back in 2015 for £2k. Used and abused daily and cost me around £1k in maintenance over 5 years. It's fugly but fun to drive and surprising spacious inside.
kia picanto. basically just a cheaper i10. cheap to service and run. not bad to drive even if you are tall (my better half replaced her mini with one and it's great)
