Used cars under £10,000 FAQs

What is the best used car to buy under £10,000?

With £10,000 you have your pick of the used car market, with petrol, diesel, sports cars and even some electric cars available. We love the BMW i3, Mk10 Honda Civic or Skoda Octavia as reliable and good-to-drive options.

What is the most reliable used car for under £10,000?

The Toyota Corolla or Prius are hard to beat in the reliability stakes - not only are they very dependable, but an example that’s less than ten years old can even be covered by Toyota’s ‘Relax’ warranty.

What is the best used family car under £10k?

The Kia Sportage is one of the best family SUVs out there, and you can get a great example of the Mk4 version for a £10,000 budget.

What is the best used sports car under £10k?

There’s only one answer here - the Mazda MX-5. You can definitely take more of a risk on something like a Porsche Boxster or a BMW Z4, but the MX-5 is within budget and very reliable, while giving you that rear-drive chassis and drop-top fun.
