As the title suggests, looking for suggestions for the best dealer to buy a small car from and the reasons for your suggestion?

Looking to spend maybe £10k on low mileage small car when next out in autumn.

Also suggestions for what car would be useful, see lots of these little Suzuki altos out and about, does anyone have one and are they any good, or is it must avoid.

Also Nissan March similar?

Or mitsubishi mirage etc

Tiga, very helpful and reliable. When your car goes for a service you'll get a courtesy car. Ours was collected at 8am and back by 11.30am!

I agree that Tiga are a good company and offer good aftersales service.

I've also dealt with Akın Motors and found them to also be a good company.

You will have difficulty finding a low mileage car under £10,000 though.

This was the least expensive car on Akın Motors website, but it's probably worthwhile to call in and speak to them!

I second Akin and their service is excellent both in customer and car! But then, you only get what you pay for - http://akinmotors.com/tr/?vehicle=aston ... v8-volante so you may have to adjust your budget a little - lol.

As for how much they will next autumn? Send me the winning numbers for the National Lottery on the 22nd of April and I will send you the prices for second hand cars for next autumn - lol!!! All the car dealers are having a hard time right now and if the Government want more income then it will only get worse. Watch what happens to Turkey prices after the elections there as that may well have an effect on prices here.

Good luck.

Try Kilinc motors Alsancak, great after sales, had battery give up after 12 months, replaced no charge, never for one minute expected it to be replaced. Speak with Hasan 05488364838.
He will also deal with your mot, road tax etc. Great guy

Another thing to watch out for is car insurance. Mine was renewed last week and I queried the valuation, as thought it was too low, being around £4500. Turns out car is now valued at £11,000, so another quote and just paid the difference today. It's not often that your car appreciates over the years. It's a mad world!
I wouldn't have thought about it much, but saw same car as mine, 5 years older, being sold for same price as I paid for mine almost 3 years ago, advertised I think, on this forum.
