Buying my daughter's first car
My daughter is pestering me to buy her first car. She is still in full time education and has a weekend job. We have seen advertised an ex-rental white Suzuki Alto 1.0 SZ2 L (2011) with five-doors and 21,000 miles on the clock.
The local rental company wants £2750 inc VAT. Should we buy it? Will it be reliable?
