Buying used - Mazda2 or Suzuki Swift?
I like the Mazda2 (2007 onwards) and Suzuki Swift (2010 onwards).
1) Can you please tell me which would be more reliable in the longer run if I were to buy used?
2) Which of these would have the lower overall running costs?
3)Which is the best colour to retain its value - I will prefer 5 door
4) The preferred engine for economy and reliability?
5)Roughly which year had the most robust, reliable model?

Mazda 2 1.3TS2 from October 2010 to get it under 120g/km CO2 and therefore £30 annual tax. Best colour red. Just came top in class in German TUV survey.
