Fiesta, Ibiza or used A1?

Im buying my first car and had been considering one of 3 very different models on PCP, new ford fiesta, Seat Ibiza or a used Audi A1..... can you help guide on which would be the best choice or if you know if any of these models have reliability issues? For info im early 30s, female and have provisional.

Hi Louise,

Of the three you’ve mentioned, I’d say the new SEAT Ibiza would be the best choice (but make sure it’s the completely new model, not a run-out of the old one). It’s sophisticated, roomy and really nice to drive and SEATs have a great reputation for reliability. The Fiesta is a good choice too, but there’s not much point in going for the Audi (unless you’re really passionate about the brand) because it’s basically mechanically the same as the Ibiza, but much more expensive.
