We`re downsizing our second car and I will be test driving the following next week - I'd value your views. Just after a reliable, safe supermini. A number of these have 0% APR offers which is attractive. Suzuki Swift 1.2 3dr, Vauxhall Corsa 1.2 16v 3dr, Mazda2 1.3 3dr. Suzuki seems well spec`d but small boot, Mazda seem to have a good reputation, Vauxhall may offer a keen deal..any other thoughts around the 10K mark?

Either the Suzuki Swift 1.2 or the Mazda2 1.3TS2. Both are great fun to drive. The Corsa isn't, and doesn't have much else to recommend it.
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.
