Our verdict

LT19 ABC (VW Golf) is the strongest buy of your three

Best health score (85/B), a completely clean history, and low running costs. The BMW i4 is also clean but costs the most to buy. We'd walk away from WV08 XVZ - see the warning below.

⚠ Outstanding finance (a hire purchase agreement) and a Cat N write-off found on WV08 XVZ. If you buy before the seller settles the finance, the lender may still have a claim on the car, and sorting that out can take months.
