RENAULT TWINGO 1.2 FREEWAY £1,599\nThis is a Renault Twingo. It has a 1.2 litre engine, three doors and roughly the same amount of unnecessary technology as a garden shed.\nAnd that’s precisely why it’s brilliant.\n38,000 miles which for a 2009 car means it’s barely finished warming up.\n3 owners from new, with the last owner keeping it since 2015. Four service stamps, MOT until 3 February 2027, and 2 keys.\nEquipment? Well it has a CD player.\nThat’s it. And frankly, what else do you need\nNo 48-inch touchscreen. No subscription to turn the heater on. No computer asking whether you'd like to install an update before going to Tesco.\nYou get in. Turn the key. Drive.\nIt’s cheap to insure, cheap to run and probably capable of travelling from London to Scotland on the fumes from somebody else's petrol station.\nThe only downside is the spiderweb on the fuel filler. Apparently nobody uses it. Put £20 in the tank and you’ll probably still have some left when summer comes around again.\nSmall. Simple. Economical. Surprisingly clean.\nRenault Twingo 1.2 Freeway 3dr\n38,000 miles\n 2 keys\n 3 owners\n4 service stamps\n MOT until 03/02/2027\n 1.2 petrol\n The mighty CD player\n £1,599\nFor £1,599, you could buy a new iPhone.
