Best used family car for £4k?
I am looking for a car to replace my ageing Volkswagen Passat. We are a family of three and our next car must have a large boot with enough space for a child’s buggy. I live in London and only drive a few days per week, but want something practical. What do you recommend? I have £4000 to spend.

Economical, reliable and cheap to maintain: a Fiesta 1.25 82PS, previous shape. A Honda Jazz is more expensive, but much more roomy and practical inside.
