I am about to be made redundant and will then be setting up my own business. I have the option of buying my current company car for £8000 (an 07-plate Ford S-Max Titanium which has done 140,000 miles, mainly motorway miles, and which has a full service history). I will be operating on a tight budget for the next 12 months or so as the business establishes. Am I better off looking for a lower mileage older car for the same money, or should I stick with the car I know (and like very much)? We need to have a seven seater vehicle. I am thinking about a Peugeot 807, Mitsubishi Grandis, or the old shape Galaxy as alternatives.
