I currently have a Holden Barina (2001).It's been a great runaround, but we now want to update.I'd like to do a bit better than the Barina - it's only a small 3 door and a bit plasticy!
I want a 1300-1500cc , 5 door, small, cheap! (would love to stick around $5-8k, but could go to $10k).
I've looked on TM at Honda Jazz,Fitz, Echo,Toyota Vitz, Honda Civic. does anyone have any comment (poss/neg) about any of these cars!
As I am short, I love a steering wheel that moves up or down and seats that do the same.Do you have to buy a sporty version to get these!My Barina has none of that!
tar.

serious- Im sorry there is NO one answer to that question. In NO way am I being evasiveits just thatwhats best for one person really is no good for someone else or simply doesn't ring their belllooks wise. I must say given your description of YOU that right away I thoughtHMM a Mazda Demio sportwould be perfect. Small car with lots of load space. Sporty looking,Good reliable engine/gearbox --AND a BIG range of adjustment in seat height and adjustable steering wheel height too But heck theres also the Toyota Ist which I'm sure the new shape swift was styled after. Really thewre is so much choice

One minute Jazz recommends a Punto grande for someone wanting a family car, ie. a big car, then nek minit he is recommending it for someone wanting a small car.
Which one is it Jazz!

Echos are good cars but for under 10k theyll be looking at a 1300 and fairly old too
