Hi everyone,

For various boring reasons we have need of a little nippy thing which will probably do <3k miles a year.

Ideally not big, petrol and with 4WD - reason for the 4WD is that my partner can't wfh when the weather gets bad (medical) and we live in a place that usually gets tricky at some point each year. Although she did like being taken to work by the neighbour in his tractor one year hehe

Petrol - purely as it'll do sod all miles (assuming this isn't good for a diesel?)

Small - well, we just don't need it to cart a lot of stuff around

Ideally no more than £10k

Autotrader suggests a Mokka or Yeti... My suggestion of a Ferret or Springer fell on deaf ears hehe

Or should I just get a Focus/Golf with snow tyres?

Thoughts on a postcard, I'm open to suggestions (even of a change of tack).

Cheers

The MIL has a Suzuki Swift 4x4, it’s a decent little car. Not quick though.
