Looking to spend up to €400 a month...
Hi, I am looking to purchase a car on HP. Budget is approx. €400 per month and I can make down payment. Preferable makes are Volvo, Toyota and Ford but I am open to suggestions. Environmental impact is a key consideration. Could you let me know what is available?
Our answer:
Hi Adam,
Your budget looks healthy but it won’t allow you the widest choice overall – you’re best off sticking with the Toyotas and Fords, which will have good deals on the current hybrids. The latest Ford Puma is a particularly nice vehicle and quite efficient, so give that a whirl, or consider the Corolla hybrid, which is very popular.
