My sister bought a 2 year old automatic Mokka last year, paid £16000 for it. She kept bumping into things, big car she said, poor lock. She is looking to change it for something smaller, looked at a couple of Japanese cars, then went back to Dave Fowler Cars, where she bought the Mokka, and was persuaded to take a Corsa for a test drive. She liked it, found it easy to park, and is tempted to buy it. It is a petrol automatic. Forecourt price was £9999. He offered her a straight swap. She has just asked my advice. Please advise.

That Corsa (the white one) has been on his forecourt since April 2018.
What does that tell you?

Kathleen did say Fowler told her the price had been reduced from £11999, I told her they often say that.

Can't comment on the prices but:
my only experience of driving a Mokka was last year when SWMBO's Galaxy expired on the M25. The AA arranged a hire car (a Mokka X) from Heathrow at around midnight which I then drove back to Cornwall.
'Reverse Tardis' is how I would describe it - almost as big as a Galaxy on the outside and almost as big as a Corsa on the inside. We just about managed to squeeze two offspring in car seats into the back and a few small bags into the boot.

Like the Nissan Juke then ???

Incidentally, she borrowed my V reg Omega 2.5 manual estate last week while she had a minor bump removed from her Mokka, and observed what a joy it was to drive. She even found it easy to park.

Omegas were considered 'big' cars when first released, and are still roomy inside. But I parked next to one in my astra estate recently, and the omega looked a bit weedy.
