Should buy a new or used Volkswagen Polo?
Is it worth spending £10,500 on a Volkswagen Polo that has 40,000 miles on clock and is 2017. Or is it better to invest in a new car - either a Polo or MINI?

You'll lose a lot of money in depreciation buying new, I'd personally go for an Approved Used Polo with a manufacturer-backed warranty. Make sure you get the current model (production switched in 2017), it is significantly better than the car it replaced. Here's our review: www.honestjohn.co.uk/carbycar/volkswagen/polo-vi-2.../
