Let’s start with the Volkswagen Polo. It’s the reliable friend who always picks you up on time. You can get a snazzy new Polo for zero upfront payment if you put your full PIP mobility component into the pot—that’s roughly £75 a week going straight to the car gods.
Then there’s the Ford Fiesta. It’s practically the national pet of Britain. You can get a zippy little Fiesta with a heater that thinks it’s a hairdryer and a stereo that encourages you to sing off-key at traffic lights. Surprising fact: the Fiesta has been the UK’s best-selling car for decades, so you’ll feel like part of a very large club.
