Category: Superminis 
Price Range: £10,365 to £13,535
Roomy and versatile; nippy yet economical engines; simple and user-friendly; well-built and reliable.
Ride still a bit bouncy; only two engines to choose from; not the cheapest in class; rather dowdy image.
Not as much fun to drive as the new Fiesta, nor as youthful in character, but a lot more practical and versatile.
A sterling investment; economical small cars are always popular second-hand, and the Honda Jazz's reputation for reliability makes it one of the most sought-after superminis.
The clutchless/CVT/auto versions always fetch good money used, but even basic-spec 1.2s sell for far more than the equivalent Fiesta and Corsa at three years old. Just don't go too mad with the options list, and be aware that there may be a limited number of takers for the pink paintwork...
