This list is compiled automatically from cars currently for sale through approved UK dealers on Motoring.Today and refreshes as stock changes. Rankings use data we already hold — cash price, road tax, CO₂, MOT history and body type — never finance figures and never sponsored placement. Always check the individual car's full details before buying.
