Which second hand estate to go for?

second hand estate car hi, I am looking to buy a second hand estate car for max EUR 7500. looking at Kia ceed, Hyundai I30 and skoda ocatavia esate, all 1.6 l diesel. if I ever want to re-sell which brands are most appealing and is low milage a big differentiator? many thanks for your advice

Our answer:

Hi Ser,

All three brands are solid choices for residual value, with Skoda probably the best, followed by Hyundai and then Kia, but to be honest, there's not much between them in terms of overall appeal. Condition and history will be much more important, and that's true for mileage too - while low miles is always appealing, a solid service history and good condition can outweigh a big reading on the odometer.
