No.10: Toyota Avensis
The government’s car scrappage scheme appears to have been a success. In the first six weeks of the programme, around 60,000 people took advantage of it, which means that the cash put up by the powers-that-be will have run out by the end of the year. So, it’s time to cash in yourself. Buy the right car and you could even turn a profit by reselling it quickly.
