Volkswagen Up Problems
No car is perfect, but we've gathered everything relating to the Volkswagen Up reliability here to help you decide if it's a smart buy.
Best second-hand city runaround?
I wouldn't consider any of the European brands, they're too expensive and cost too much to run. That rules out the Up. Asian brands, particularly the better-known and well-respected Japanese brands are a much better bet, which rules in the Echo. The Asian brands tend to be more reliable and cost much less to run. Another to look at in your situation is the Suzuki Alto.
