Top 10 cool cars for under $20K - Motoring
These are psychological barriers beyond which people believe — or have been told by finance providers — they cannot afford to go. For many of us $20,000 is a big barrier, however, you might be surprised at what kinds of car and levels of luxury... Thanks to a recent tax incentive there is a wide and ever-growing selection of brand-new passenger cars and bare-bones commercial models that will plummet in value the minute a new version comes on the market. Alternatively you can consider a car three to 10 years old with most of its depreciation already done and dusted. Some models on our list have plunged horrendously and lost around 80 per cent of their new value. A few of the cars we've highlighted are suited only to the two-seat selfish, but they are in the minority. The looks that follow your car as it passes fashionable coffee spots, people who never previously acknowledged your existence wanting to talk, relatives worrying that you have gone way too deep into debt are all ways of letting the 'cool' car... Some of these cars will cost significantly to service and maintain than others, so do your homework before committing to a particular model. Source: www.motoring.com.au
