Hi l live in Dublin. Can someone please suggest some (used cars) in a budget of 10k-13k? l have come across a few; but not sure which one to decide on:
•Honda Civic 2003/2004 – 40k+ mileage
•Peugeot 207S/SX2006/2007 – 20k+ mileage
•Toyota Corolla 2004/2005 – 40k+ Mileage
•Nissan Almera 2004/2005 – 35k+ mileage

I’m more concerned about the reliability and safety of the car.

l would definitely go for the Honda Civic.

Both the Honda and the Toyota are the best choices. To decide which one check up the condition of both cars (paint, interior and engine). Honda and Toyota are very reliable an almost trouble free cars, independently of mileage, but the first owner makes the difference. Some people pound their cars and treat them very bad. Choose a car with a meticulous owner.
Good luck.

Without doubt go for the Honda Civic. Trouble free motoring for years.
