What small automatic should I buy for £2000?
My car has just been totalled by a white van man. I have to buy a replacement. I only bought my car in October and now have to look again. I need easy access because of bad back problems, an automatic, a radio that works and a heater. My last car cost £1300. Somewhere in that area would be best for me up to £1500/£2000. What do you advise?

Best you can get for that sort of money is a Toyota Yaris Mk 1 1.3 4-speed torque converter auto. Of course, you could still get a bad one, but it's still the best of the bunch.

I've read good reports on both the Suzuki Baleno and the Suzuki Swift automatics, but I'm wondering which one of them I should buy. I believe the build quality in the Swift might be better. What do you...
