Great Used Cars under £15,000

This list was created to help UK users choose the best used car to suit their needs, and easily find options available in their area. 

I've added the estimated road tax and prices based on the options available, as well as the video snippets where you can see what I think of each option - and what to look for when you are browsing to buy each specific car.

When buying a used car, consider the MPG and price, but don't forget to factor in the road tax, insurance, whether or not it has been in an accident, as well as your own personal needs. 

An important disclaimer: Do your proper research beyond just AutoTrader, and do a history check. I always recommend using V-Check for this as their check is far more comprehensive than the Experian / HPI checks that you see on most websites.

Follow me on other social networks for more car-related content to help you make better buying decisions!
