You can by a Vauxhall Corsa from around £7,665 and reach £16,850 for the top of the range model, although the Vauxhall website states the starting price is £10,225. This is great value and with depreciation value fairly low on supermini cars because they are so much in demand. This is a great car for first time car buyers because it looks good and is cheap to run. The insurance starts from Group 1 which is great if you are a younger driver. I bought this car mainly because my driving instructor taught me how to drive in one. It handles well and in my opinion is a great compact car for first time drivers.
