Buying a small car for £5k
I’m in the market for a used car. I want something small, with five-doors and low/zero VED. What would you recommend for £5000?

A Ford Fiesta 1.25 82PS, but it doesn't have zero VED.
Real MPG enables you to register the fuel economy you are actually getting against your make and model of car, its engine and type of transmission.
Every time you enter an average consumption figure against your car, the overall average automatically adjusts to reflect it.
