need to get a new car for SWMBO to replace the aged Metro.

ideal budget of about 2-3K.Wondered about a Felicia.... any comments - good or bad.

No I cannot afford a Furby

anything to watch out for

or if not what sensible alternatives,already got the vRS so this will purely be for basic use with no long trips and only about 3-4K miles a year not worth getting a tdi

thanks

ford ka in that price range? not sure.

wife had one, fantastic city car and honestly a hoot to drive!

I had a Felicia as a courtesy car, and it was the worst car I've ever driven, including the Micra and the Rover Metro I learned in, and my girlfriend's old clapped out Citroen ZX. For the money, you'd be much better off getting a Micra or similar.

Get a micra CVT good little city cars, or a Matiz not exactly a drivers car but ok for short mileages?

The Felicia is a good car, despite what Witchfinder says above it is certainly superior to the metro and Citreon. Iquite like the Micra myself, but the Felicia is bigger. The only fault I ever had in over 100K miles in 2 Felicia's was the Alternator.

Still for very low mileages a little Micra would be just as good and easier to find a good example off.

My wife went from a Metro to a Felicia 1.6. The Felicia is reliable and cheap to service, but unexciting to drive. Power steering is essential.
