So I'm at the stage where I'm looking at purchasing my first owned vehicle (not my first car but first I'll own).
I'm looking for some advice and open to consideration on what to get.
I'll provide all details below to go off of:
Location: based in Durban (KZN)
Preferred mileage: Under 130000km
Preferred year: 2016 or newer (planning to keep the vehicle for up to 5 years)
Cars of interest:
BMW 118i / 120i
Ford Ecosport 1.5tdci
Ford Fiesta 1.0 Ecoboost
Cars driven:
Polo Sedan 2017 1.6 Trendline
Honda Jazz 2018 1.2 (This thing has less power than my Up)
Ford EcoSport 2015 1.5tdci Titanium
Ford Fiesta 2005 1.4
I want to stick to a hatchback/SUV shape as much as possible but open to others like fastback/sedan.
Due to location I'm looking to avoid high risk vehicles like the Polo / Polo Vivo's.
TL : DR - I want something that feels more powerful/engaging with a bit more space than the VW Up between R180k - R250k)
