Looking to replace the Freelander with a new car on PCP. Front runners are:

1. Seat Mii Toca 5dr
2. Skoda Citigo Greentech Elegance 5dr
3. Skoda Fabia Monte Carlo

Open to any random suggestions, along as its decent value. As a baseline, number 1 above is looking at circa £130pm with free servicing over 3 years and very good spec. "Good value" isnt a poverty spec Volkswagen Up nearing £200pm. Freelander worth £1k is the deposit.

Now I havent set a budget, but if a BMW 135i or Toyota GT86 was a stunning deal I'll probably consider it hehe

Its only going to be a third car, mainly town use, occasional long run - prob 5k pa miles. I want in situ cars, not 4 month factory orders.

Is there anything interesting I've missed that anyone has got recently? I've also gone past looking at old Audi S4s, Jag XJs and other random money pits, so not those please tongue out

Don't want to be the first to say it but when you mention money pits then spending £5k+ on a third car which will see zero return after 3 years, it doesn't make sense to me.

Yep I know what you're saying, already been through my head. Whilst I dont mind messing around with old cars and doing stuff myself, I dont have the time. I'd rather a buy and forget kind of deal for the 3rd car, plus when you look at some of the figures - ie no tax/no servicing/no maintenance/no depreciation costs at all, sometimes you're better off.
