We'd like a reliable and low cost car...
Couple in our 70s want a reliable low cost car / driving about 120 miles / week.
Our answer:
Hi Jim,
Simple — you need a Toyota Yaris. There are loads about second hand, with prices starting from essentially as little as you want to spend, and the new model starts at €15,000 and is exceptionally reliable, frugal, and comfortable.
