What car - economic sign written advertising car?

[r200mgr]

I'm looking on getting a car for my business for advertising and economy purposes, I was originally looking at leasing something but the cost and commitment are putting me off so I'm now looking at buying something. My requirements are cheap to buy, economical, suitable for marketing and being sign written.

The budget is up to 3k but the cheaper the better I'm likely to be doing a lot of miles and a significant amount of motorway driving, so far a smart fortwo seems the best prospect but I wanted to check I'm not overlooking anything?

Just buy a Volvo V70 and enjoy wafting away in your sign written barge :P

Isn't the service/product you are promoting a major consideration?

I once had a neighbour who tried to sign me up for Herbalife or something similar. "You can make loads of money" he said, I thought "Why are you driving a sign-written 10 year old Volvo 343 then?"

As above consider the vehicle's reputation and image, a tidy old BMW or Mercedes on an ageless platecan still loook prestige, but can still leave people thinking it is a higher value vehicle than it is.
