Reliable and economical secondhand car - suggestions please

[EMGEMG]

I'm looking for a secondhand car and I need something reliable reliable, economical and comfy for long drives. And I'm on a tight budget of course!
I'm thinking of a Nissan at the moment - O heard they're pretty reliable at higher mileage. And cost less to buy and run.
Any suggestions are welcome!

Hyundai have a good reputation with me and a number of my friends

I’d probably avoid any Nissan built in the last 10 years or so, Toyota is where I’d be looking.

These don't seem to appear on 'most reliable' reviews but I'll bear them in mind. Thank you.

I've got an ix20. Its 10yo and i've had it 8 with no issues. I love driving it. 2 good friends have Tucsons, again no issues. For 1 it replaced a previous model (ix35) which was fine, it was just an upgrade. If from new you get a 5 year warranty

Kia

If you get one with even a tiny bit of warranty left most dealers seem pretty relaxed about any claims

I got a brand new clutch when they went to fix an oil leak on mine

My mum has a Honda Jazz and although I don't enjoy it myself (I'm used to my tank of a 4x4) its incredibly economical, reliable as hell and its an absolute tardis inside, it's really quite spacious. Hers was bought for i think 8/9k at 3 years old with less than 10k mileage on it

Toyota or Honda Jazz. Also Ford Focus.

Toyota Aygo. They are very reliable.
