Fewer new cars and an increased demand for personal mobility has seen a surge in demand for used cars, inflating prices of the most popular models. Good news if you’re selling a car, but not great if you’re hoping to a grab a used bargain.

It's not all bad news, because it’s still possible to find a good, relatively recent used car for £5000. If you look beyond the obvious and most popular models, you’ll find thousands of used cars at affordable prices. We’ve limited our search to cars registered after 2010 and with up to 100,000 miles on the clock.
