    Mine would be a Fiat Panda 1.3 multijet diesel.



    €13500
    4 yr warranty
    €104 road tax
    66 mpg (combined)

    Not the prettiest but not half bad. People are gonna knock it but it makes sense!!

    I meant second hand cars for something like 1-3k. Something that would cost the least possible to run over let's say 5 years including all expenditures.

    Something like an Audi 80tdi if theres any left on the road - buy for buttons, 55mpg, built like a tank.
    I sold one a while back with 240k miles on it, rock solid to drive, and very economical.
