My niece is looking for a car around £5k/£6k.....You can pick up the entry level Proton savvy Street. Extra's on most cars, as standard on a Proton, 3 years warranty/breakdown...Ok it's a Skoda site but someone might know..... Are they any good for the money.....Lotus Backed....!!!

The Gen2 looks like a vastly better car - how much is a nearly new one.

If I was after a brand spanking new cheapo car it would have to be a hyundai with a 5 year warranty , or one of the Aygo/C1/107 trilogy

i saw them in a shopping centre somwhere ages ago on display and i think they look very good

Personally with this budget I would be opting for a Kia rather than any of the above. They seem to go on forever and build quality has really improved during the last couple of years.

I'd go for a Hyundai Getz - the dealers are happy to talk money, you get 5 yr warranty and 3yrs servicing.

SWMBO's got one and I wish my Furby was in the garage as often
