Women motorists looking to downsize in a bid to cut costs on everything from fuel to car insurance may find Daihatsu can help.

The company claimed the Sirion is an ideal car to be driving in a recession.

It explained the model offers fuel economy of 56.5 mpg, which means owners could reduce the amount they spend at the pump.

On top of this, with CO2 emissions of 118 g/km, the car qualifies for road tax of £35 a year.

Those buying the vehicle under the scrappage scheme could also make savings up front, as it is available to participants of the initiative from £6,320.

Operations director Paul Hegarty stated: "We pride ourselves on building ultra-reliable, practical, fun-to-drive cars for the twenty-first century motorist and the Sirion is a brilliant example of this philosophy."

In addition to this, people may find the vehicle also qualifies for cheap comprehensive car insurance because smaller vehicles are generally regarded as posing a lower risk to providers.
