First Car Recommendations for a 17yo P Plater
My daughter (17F) has her P's and we're buying a car for her to drive to and from school.
Requirements are:
- Under $15k
- Less than 175k kilometers on the clock
- Ideally 2012 or later
- Automatic
- Not a 2-door
Ideally we'd also like something reliable, reasonable safety record, good supply of replacement parts and not too expensive to service.
For now it will just be driven to and from school, but ideally it's a car that she can keep for a few years, so may see more use down the track.
Hyundai i30's and Mazda 2/3's seem to be fairly common options that meet these requirements. I've also heard good things about Toyota Corollas. Several friends have said to stay away from Holdens and Fords.
Any other good options to consider that fit these requirements?
