New or used?
I recently negotiated a deal for a recent, used (17000 miles) 2011 Corsa. The car is in good condition.
However I just found the exact same car but brand new for a little over a £1000 more. Do you think it would be better to pay the extra for the new car or save some on the slightly used.

As long as you have not paid a deposit, buy the new car rather than the used one.
Our honest used car pricing is a little bit different to all the others. You can get to our values through make or model - you don’t have to follow a prescribed route. Plus, it’s live, which means we can react to changes in the market quicker than any printed price guide.

Solid and decently equipped. Reasonable handling and some frugal engines.
