Kia Optima 1.7 CRDi ‘2’

£265 per month with a £4,850 deposit (4.9 per cent APR)

Kia Optima - Best cars under £300

The Kia Optima is a left-field choice in the family car segment, but it has always represented good value. In basic ‘2’ spec, it includes sat-nav, cruise control and 17-inch alloys. The 1.7-litre CRDi engine is frugal, too, with economy of 67.3mpg. Kia is currently offering a £1,000 deposit contribution for Optima PCP deals, plus there’s the brand’s excellent seven-year warranty.
