Car for the missus - Niall - 21-02-2015

Yes, yet another "what car" thread!
The missus is after a new car. Needs to be as economical and cheap to run as possible with a budget of no more than £2500. Wants to be relatively small (no bigger than a 306) and ideally 5 door but 3 door isn't too much of an issue.
She already has a 206cc which is a fairly nice car and i think she would be happy with a hatch back version. I was thinking getting a 1.4 HDi but what are they like? Speed really isn't an issue for her!

Cheers

Get her a 207?


RE: Car for the missus - Piggy - 21-02-2015

Not the 207! Flipping weighs more than the moon!

Why not the later 206 with 2.0hdi? cheapertax.

I got one for my mrs. She aboslutely loves it.
Stg1/deegrd. Cheap to insure. Avg 56mpg mix driving.

And I secretly love it! So nice to drive.


RE: Car for the missus - Toms306 - 21-02-2015

306... Tongue

If she just wants something small and eco have you considered 107/C1/Aygo? If she likes 206s though, a diesel hatch version seems ideal...


RE: Car for the missus - 1616six - 21-02-2015

Early mk5 golf, Polo TDI, Alfa 147?

Id personally go Polo. There's more to life than Peugeot.


RE: Car for the missus - Anton - 21-02-2015

Get a nice late 206 2.0 hdi eco, £30 tax, super box for epic mpg, stage 1 tune. Done


RE: Car for the missus - 306carter - 21-02-2015

Polo or Golf would be a call or a Skoda Fabia? VRs maybe?

Sorry i should of said, what ever it is needs to be relatively safe as well so nothing like a 106/107 etc

Have had a look at Golfs but not found much decent within the price range unless she spends her max budget which if possible, we want to avoid. I did consider a polo but haven't had a look yet to see what you get for your money.

Looks a great buy.


http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&alt=web&id=301538192073

Or even an Ibiza?

RE: Car for the missus - Niall - 21-02-2015

Cheers Jordan Smile
She won't like the Ibiza i don't think. The polos do look good but i think she would be happier with something slightly older but better specced rather than newer but very basic.

Yes, she's very picky lol


RE: Car for the missus - Eeyore - 21-02-2015

206 hdi...


RE: Car for the missus - Grant - 21-02-2015

Why's the 206cc going?


RE: Car for the missus - Dum-Dum - 21-02-2015

Will you not get a 207cc for that money, you'd certainly get the hatch for that.

RE: Car for the missus - Jonny81191 - 22-02-2015

My cabby, it's ideal for her lol


RE: Car for the missus - bashbarnard - 22-02-2015

206 hdi would be good. Could even get a newer fiesta with the 1.4 hdi pug lump in for that money. Again cheap tax. Five door. Overall good car.

RE: Car for the missus - Niall - 22-02-2015

I wouldn't let her come to FCS. Quite simply, she would end up air tight.
