What Car? gives award to Ford Fiesta
This year's awards were very fruitful for Ford, with their Mondeo 2.0 TDCi 140 Zetec being named the best used family car, and the best used MPV award being given to the S-Max 2.0 TDCi 140 Zetec. It certainly looks like the 2.0 TDCi is the model to go for if you're after a Ford!
The Nissan Qashqai 1.5 dCi Acenta was the overall winner of the awards in 2011, and this year it wins the award for best used SUV of 2012. The reliable Qashqai continues to be well-liked, and a larger alternative to the Ford Focus, or Volkswagen Golf.

In other categories, the best used city car award was given to the Toyota Aygo 1.0 VVT-i+ 3 door model, with it's punchy engine and compact size.
