Buying a used car for a low price doesn’t mean you have to compromise on reliability, performance or aesthetics. Get a great deal on a quality used car from SPOTiCAR with our helpful advice.
THE BEST CHEAP USED CARS FROM EACH CATEGORY
To simplify the process of buying a cheap used car, SPOTiCAR has a wide selection of the best models on the market to help you narrow down your search. Category after category, you’ll find plenty of vehicles combining smart prices, quality, and reliability, including:
Second-hand city cars
Since it was first released, the Dacia Sandero has always been a benchmark for reliability. With a low risk of experiencing mechanical incidents and compact dimensions, it makes for a great city car. Even better, a second-hand Dacia Sandero won’t cost you more than £10,000. For around the same price, you could also get a used Renault Clio, Vauxhall Corsa or Ford Fiesta.
Cheap second-hand hatchbacks
In the compact end of the market, a used Citroën C4 gives you excellent value for your money. A benchmark in quality from the French manufacturer, it benefits from reliable engines, impressive versatility and smooth handling. The Seat Leon, Dacia Logan, Ford Focus and Vauxhall Astra are also interesting choices in the used hatchback category. More eco-minded consumers might choose the slightly more expensive hybrid version – the truly iconic Toyota Prius.
Used MPV or people carrier
The used Citroën C4 Spacetourer and Citroën Grand C4 Spacetourer are leaders in this segment, attracting drivers with its unbeatable value. Other interesting but slightly more expensive alternatives in this sector of the market include the used Ford C-Max and used Renault Scénic.
Used family cars and Cheap SUVs
In this section of the market, a second-hand Dacia Duster is probably the cheapest second-hand SUV you can buy. Another good choice if you need five real seats is a used Renault Kadjar, as well as the used Kia Sportage, which is excellent value for money.
Used station wagons
To ride smart, there’s nothing like a used Docia Logan MCV for an excellent price to space ratio. If you have a slightly higher budget, you might consider a used Fiat Tipo SW and if you want the most stylish station wagon there is, then a used Vauxhall Astra Sports Tourer will be a great fit for you.
