My car is slowly dying and looks for opinions on what is the cheapest option of car ownership and running costs long-term?
My current car has proven to be amazing value, but am coming to that time when I am weighing up cost / benefit of continuing to maintain it.
So what options would you propose for the cheapest possible running costs over the next 10 years? The following requirements (as well as being cheap)
- Auto box
- Something that feels sturdy on a motorway, so no tin box hatchbacks à la Micra and something reasonably torquey.
- A good safety rating.
I’m thinking that maybe finding an old biddy locally that has a 5 to 10 year old German or Swedish car owned from new with low mileage, but that may be difficult to find…!
