Japanese or German for second hand?
Hi I am looking to buy a second hand car but torn between Japanese and German cars. I want a roomy car, boot space, but economical. I have a Ford Focus 2006 1.4 to trade-in. Its giving me trouble lately and its expensive to replace the instrument cluster. I would appreciate your valuable advice many thanks!
Our answer:
Hi Beth,
Go for either a Honda Civic 1.4 or a Toyota Auris 1.33. Both are hugely spacious, well made and utterly reliable, The Honda is nicer to drive, if you’re keen on that end of things.
