Which Suzuki Swift model is best?
I have a 2015 1.2 Suzuki Swift but would like more power and refinement. A Suzuki salesman recommended the Swift with the Boosterjet engine which I eventually test drove. I must say I was disappointed with this later car as there were aspects such as gearbox and steering that I felt were not as good as my earlier model Swift, although it was speedier. With regards to extra speed and refinement should I be looking at a 2015 onwards Swift Sport instead or am I missing another gem? My budget is up to £13,000.

If refinement is important, you might be better looking at something a little bigger than the Swift. Have you considered a MINI Hatch? It's great to drive and will be more refined than your Swift. Your £13k budget will get you a 2018 model with the excellent 1.5-litre petrol engine. You could also consider a SEAT Leon, Ford Focus or BMW 1 Series - all are refined family hatchbacks that are surprisingly fun to drive.
