The dilemma: Dad-of-two Paul has a problem that is very familiar to Driven readers - the need for a family runabout that's not going to cost a lot but can cope with varied duties.
"My family and I are looking at purchasing a four-door vehicle which can be used for getting to and from work in the city and for increasing needs of a taxi service for our two boys' activities," Paul says.
"We ideally want something small and low maintenance."
Well Paul, you are entering a relativity high-risk part of the used car market so be careful you don't end up owning somebody else's problems.
Often sellers decide to move their vehicles on in this price bracket because of potential high repair bills.
