I am not sure if this is even the correct forum but here goes.
So I understand that new cars are poor value as is leasing, so I am looking at buying a 3-5 year old car.
But I am totally totally stuck. I know bugger all about cars. We have a family mobile which Mrs Tasslehoff needs for the school run and I used to run a 07 Vectra 1.9 TD as a company car in my permie days. Bar that I have no other car experince.
First I started looking at Corsas and Toyota Auris but I have to be honest.. this contract (well for me) an amazing jump in rate and I have a decent war-chest so I am sorely tempted to get something more "fun".
So then I have been looking at VW Golf Blue motions purely for their MPG. I also was tempted by the BMW 350 as its MPG is decent they look amazing.
But I am honestly no idea what to do at this point. Contract starts in 3 weeks so I need something before then.
Any advice /experiences appreciated.

- New contract of a year +
- 80 mile motorway round trip a day
- Public transport not an option
- New car needed.
- Technically I guess budget is 10k but could be more or less, I am more interested in value
