Buying a retirement car

We'd like to replace our Renault Scenic for our reritement. Which would you recommend Honda Jazz or Toyota Verso? Need a high driving position.

Honda Jazz is smaller and more economical, unless you mean the new Toyota Verso S. Latest Jazz and Verso S video tested at HJUK.

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.
