    Ford Lasers are great value too and the sedans generally have good boot space. If you like Mazda's, have a look at the older models - 323 and 626. My mum had a 323 sedan for YEARS and it was an awesome car with great boot space

    i know this is an old post, but just wanted to say that the mazda 626 hatches have the anchor points right at the back of the boot, so that the anchor straps run across the length of your boot. so basically there is no way that you would fit any pram etc etc. i had to get rid of mine for this reason, even though i absolutely loved it.

    If you're buying an older used car as a runaround, make sure you get a vehicle check from someone like the RAC (NRMA or similar for the Eastern States) - BEST money you will ever spend when buying a car!

    They give you a full written report on everything that could possibly be wrong with the car and are very thorough. Definitely worth doing to avoid buying someone else's lemon.
