Hi All,

My sister has a budget of £2,000.

She can only drive an auto and wants it to be as reliable as possible.

I'm thinking a 1.4 auto VW Lupo ??

Thoughts please???

Not too sure is the french autos will be as good?

Toyota Yaris or Honda Jazz CVT might be worthy of consideration too. Failing that, you can also find the odd auto MX5 getmecoat

I'd have to get the paint matched on the near side!

I usually slate Sh*troens but the auto box in the C3 is absolutely fine, I've sold a couple and they're a lot nicer to drive than the manuals. £2,000 should get you a later plate than some of the other suggestions too.

It's awesome but I doubt his sister will be able to handle driving a massive barge like that day to day!

Honda civic, not going to set the world alight but is probably one of the most reliable cars on the road.
