Cheap reliable automatic for 2-3k

[Farrago]

Looking for a cheap £3k-ish car to tide me over between two leases for 6-12 months which I can sell afterwards easily. Used to an electric car so ideally would be automatic and reasonably nippy with long MOT and service. I only really use it for a 10 mile commute each day, so not too bothered about efficiency etc.

Currently looking at something like this - https://www.autotrader.co.uk/car-details/202208249...
Any recommendations or things not to consider? Thanks

Petrol might be better OP if you're only doing 10 mile journeys

With you're low mileage I'd say go for a petrol so in the case of the CLK a 200 makes sense:

If a CLK320cdi can work with your usage then this one is the pick:
