Chevrolet Matiz to Spark?

I have an 07-plate Chevrolet Matiz with 33.000 miles on clock.

It has couple of interior scratches, driver's door. Needs nudge to open and bonnet unlocker has become temperamental, otherwise OK.

I have £4500.00 in savings to spend on a car. Would you recommend part exchanging my Matiz for a Spark sooner rather than later at garage that has sold cars to my family for many years? Obviously my aim is to make my money go as far as possible.

See what kind of deal you can do. I don't think the Spark is selling very well, so that's good news for you. It's much better than the Matiz, with a chain cam engine and decent ride quality.
