Default What new small car

Advice again.

Wanting to buy the gf a new small car and looking to spend up around 26k something that is safe and not a death box, and just wanted to get peoples advice of recommendations from experience or reading.

Her current choice is the Citroen C3

thanks for your advice

Michael

I saw this really cool Renault on the road this morning, it was a hatch and looked pretty sporty. Unsure of the model let alone the $$$

Have you considered a one of those sporty looking Swifts?

I cant belive your considering a french car? i know "euro" seems like some sort of poser/lux/quality thing over her in Australia, but please the only "EURO" cars that are truly any good are BMW , MERC , and VW, and they are German,

French cars are piss poor, badly made and flimsy, on a par with korean cars.

I would rate skoda above renault, peugeot and citroen.

Go German if you have to. But please not French!
