Which car?

Can anyone recommend a car which is suitable for someone who has just passed their test but is in their 30s with a small child? They wouldn't be using the car that much, mainly for school runs and locally and want it fairly small and easy to use. They don't want to spend loads and want to build confidence on the road. Any advice?

Don't get a modern (08 and newer) diesel - you'll have dpf issues unless you do many miles/regular long higher speed journeys.

What's your budget?

VW Up!
We have one for the teenagers to learn to drive in but I use it more than the family car now as it's so much smaller and easier to park.

Toyota aygo
I’m biased as I love toyotas or a Yaris
Second hand ones really hold their price though
