Looking for a reliable car between £5k-£7k, ideally meeting the following criteria:
Medium sized for motorways, i.e your: Astras, Focus, 308 etc
Diesel
Comfortable
Must be ULEZ Compliant so 65,16,17 plate
Manual, wouldnt mind automatic but at this budget it may not be wise choice.
For any recomendations, let me know what model and engine size is good. I was looking at Astras and was led to believe that the 2.0 cdti are more reliable over the 1.6 but as the 2.0s are not ULEZ compliant, I have had to disregard them.
Im open to the idea of petrol aswell, maybe a 1.4 but I think diesel will be better as do circa 15k miles a year. Even smaller diesel cars such as Corsas are a shout but I dont know how these would fair on long commutes (35-40 miles one way)
What can you recomend
