Ownership cost
What used Citroën Xsara hatchback will I get for my budget?
How much does it cost to run a Citroën Xsara hatchback?
The best thing about buying an ordinary car that's no longer current is that it's going to be cheap. First owners may have suffered savage value losses from you, but that's all past. Look after it and in a year's time it might even sell for what you gave for it.
Day to day, the Xsara is cheap to service and repair. It's not the most reliable car, though, so you'd be wise to budget for problems.
