    Suzuki Swift or Mazda 2?

    You'll probably pay through the nose for a Yaris because of this country's obsession with Toyota. The two cars above are at least as good and will still have good resale.

    You mean the Sirion?

    I quite like it (as much as you can like a supermini)

    The reason I need another car, is I crashed the other one (after having it 6 years).

    The Sirion, has a bad review for road holding etc...
    The Aygo, is no good as I drive 70miles a day.
    Mazda2 might be a possibility, but I hear there's not many around

    Toyota Yaris, are still expensive, I thought the prices of small cars was going down?

    more suggestions welcome, as I need to get a replacement within the week

    Thanks,
    s

    Prices are prices, the actual cost is a different thing in the current market. Make a decent offer and you'll get what you want.

    Also remember that you get what you pay for.
