Civic Type-R Owners Club & Forum

Hello Good Afternoon,

I'll just get down to the point, I need something newer with less miles on to drive around after I sell my ep3 and have decided to get one of the following cars:

Mazda 2 Sport 1.5
Nissan Micra 1.6
Suzuki Swift 1.5
Fiat Panda 1.4

I have around £3000 to spend and would like to get a car on a 09/10 plate if possible with around 60000 miles, maybe high 50k miles.
The most important things I would like to know is how reliable they are in 7 year old form and what they are like to own and drive.

If anyone has any advice or better still owned one of these cars then your knowledge would be very much appreciated.

Thanks

A friend of mine is a driving instructor and has had swifts for years and absolutely swears by them. They are great fun to drive and surprisingly capable due to the weight. That would get my vote certainly.

Second the swift. Great cars.
If you're in control you're just not going fast enough
