The Categories
Everyday budget hero: The Toyota Starlet I rate is the best budget deal. It has the biggest discount, and it's a current model too. In second place,e I'd give it to the Suzuki Baleno, as it's the newest budget car here with a healthy discount.
Premium bargain: Mini Cooper John Cooper Works GP. This is a very special Mini with a heavy discount to R100 000, the largest discount in the bunch. Plus, it's a premium car too.
Best performance bargain: The Mercedes-AMG A45 takes this category as it is the most powerful car here with a decent R40 000 discount. This is the oldest car on the list, though, so be sure to double-check the service history and condition before pulling the trigger.
Best honourable mention: The BYD Dolphin Surf. This is the only EV on the list, and it's a budget one at that. So if you need EV mobility at a nice price, this is your ticket.
