Which saloon with €13,000 to spend?
I have around €13k and I'd like to buy a good up in the years, reliable, diesel, four-door, no more than 1.8-litre, mileage approx 30k p.a. Any suggestions?
Our answer:
Hi Anne,
I'd say try either a Mazda3 1.6d saloon or Volkswagen Jetta 1.6 TDI, circa 2010-2011. Both reliable, comfy and economical. Can't go wrong with either really.
