5 Great Value cars you should buy
Having worked at the BBC and in commercial radio before joining Which?, James produces our always-on podcasts, and oversaw the launch of our member-exclusive podcasts in 2025.
In this week's episode of Which? Shorts, we're revealing some of the cars that have made the first ever list of vehicles to have been awarded a Which? Great Value endorsement.
Our research shows that the standard of cars has become very good in recent years. But because we don’t take price into account when we rate vehicles, this can mean that some great cars get lost underneath a swathe of expensive excellence. That’s why we’ve gone the extra mile to bring you a balanced and varied list of Great Value cars.
This episode was written and read by Michael Passingham, and was based on Michael's article that was originally published in the August 2025 issue of Which? Magazine.
