Would you get...

An 08 plate top spec 1.2 Corsa with 44000 on the clock from a dealer who will knock £700 off the ticket price of £5700 and come and take my knackered Punto away = £5k

An 09 plate lower spec Peugeot 207 with 20000 miles from a dealer who won't give me more than £200 part ex = £6k

The boot seems a lot bigger on the Peugeot but it is a second car and DH has a c-max so it's not a deal breaker as long as I can fit the pram in (bugaboo bee, so not massive).

We are also just about to move house, so the £1k difference = moving costs.

I think what I don't know is whether the lower mileage and age plus bigger boot is worth £1k more.

And now my brain hurts. Confused

Personally I'd go for the top spec Corsa. 44000 miles is nowt, my Mondeo has 167000 on it, and still purrs like a kitten.

Dunnit: it arrives tomorrow! Now I just need my Punto to make it to the garage in one piece...
