A small car with the 'right' image
As a headteacher of a large inner city school in an economically disadvantaged area it is important that my car portrays a suitable image.
Whilst the children say they would like me to have a flashy car it would not be appropriate to be flaunting along in something ostentatious.
What would you recommend? I was considering something second hand, maybe £10-15k. I don't often carry many passengers and most journeys are less than 10 miles in city traffic, with the occasional motorway trip.

Hyundai i10 1.2 Classic at £6,995.
Or a used Toyota Prius II. You don't quite have enough for a Prius III or an Auris HSD but they would make sense.
Pity the Renault Zoe electric is not yet available at about £15,000.

Our honest used car pricing is a little bit different to all the others. You can get to our values through make or model - you don’t have to follow a prescribed route. Plus, it’s live, which means we can react to changes in the market quicker than any printed price guide.

Much better than the original. An enjoyable, practical, safe, economical hybrid. Looks good, too. Prius Taxis have run to 400,000 miles plus with very little trouble.
