Should I swap my Sirion for a Suzuki Swift?

How much can I get for my Daihatsu Sirion 1.0-litre, year 2007 with 150,000km on the clock? What is your opinion of the Suzuki Swift? I'm interested in a 2011 model with 45,981 miles.

Hi Pat,

If you're trading in, you should get circa €2,500 for your Sirion, depending on the condition. As for the Swift; it's a brilliant car - well built, economical, reliable and really good fun to drive. The only downsides are the small boot and slightly cramped rear seats.

Let us know how you get on
