yo u ask me, i d say a nissan tiida, why? well coz it has the best engine, lovely award winning 1.8lt unit and also the most space than say a lousy corolla or nissan sunny or any other similar suzuki, and a great re sale value...(avoid french or americans!!)..... plus hey the car is voted the best car many times over.....toyotas be it vios's aygo's or corollas and nissan sunnys and the suzuki lot are over rated.....

final comment:- 2010 or 2009 nissan tiida 1.8 SE with alloy rims

might not be as cheap as the others but thts value for ur money right there and a good investment
