Thinking about down sizing our present car to a so called "city car" to tow on a trailer, we spend 6 months of the year in So France or Spain I am coming up 70 OH not happy with our scooter so a very tentative looking at the market place.
Visited Carlisle on another matter today so looked at the offerings in a few garages, Citroen, Peugeot, Toyota, Seat, and VW.
We have whittled it down to the Seat Mii, Hyundai i10 and the VW Up, the others have their goods and bads but the three mentioned score for us on interior room especially in the rear and bigger engine output options.
It will be July/August before we commit so looking to fellow Funsters options/preferences/horror stories and are there any others we should look at.
Pre-registered/Demo vehicles seem to be the way forward with some big savings on new.
Present car is a Golf Match 1.6 TDI and at 7 years old is the longest we have ever owned a vehicle 50K on the clock, cracking car but to heavy to tow.
TIA
