Hello,

Before Covid I was looking at using my car allowance for a two year old car up to £15k. My allowance has no requirement at all and I feel with Covid uncertainties I should really only spend up to £4K with cash. I’ve had my A4 and fun MX5 in the past, I’m quite flexible on car and only want is heated seats (might be in my head but I find it really helps my back) and at least 4 doors. I really don’t mind how old it is or the mileage, as it’s about condition for me.

I was doing 20k a year but think for next couple of years it’s 10k a year max with reduced work visits.

I’ve searched the forum and gotten loads of ideas: Mondeo 2.0 Tit x, Astra Elite, Guilietta and CLS. Any suggestions would really be appreciated.

Thank you

How many miles do you do a year? I ask this because if you're doing a fair few then maybe spending 8k might give you better more reliable options.

Thanks. Was 20k a year but working from home at the moment - so about 8k a year personal but can get my wife to use it too (did this with the company car) it’s another 5k. So probably 12/13k a year. Will not go past 12/13k anymore

I can up the budget. Any suggestions more than welcome, thanks

Thank you.

Mondeo Tit X has been top of my list, my Dad actually had 17 Mondeos as company cars - soft spot for them.

Really love the Lexus too - hadn’t even thought about them.
