Not 100% sure, but I think the older model Kia Picanto or Hyundai Atos came with an automatic gearbox.
Alternatively, a 2009 model Hyundai Accent may also fit the bill.
 
I was thinking of such cars but maintenance could scare her especially the merc.


Not sure about reliability of these?

How reliable are these in Auto?
 
If you can find an 80s model Toyota Avante those were pretty reliable and economical. My brother had an auto one until he crashed it, I'm sad to say.

I'd stay away from the Merc.
Also, the Sentra is way too old to consider.

That particular Jazz is from a Nigerian scammer dealership just FYI. Infact most cars in your price range on autotrader will be from Nigerian dealerships.
 
@epah that is what i am afraid of.
I suggested she save a bit more and she wants a car now while she has the cash before it dissappears lol

Yeah good cars will be hard to find at that price range, Rather let her EFT you the cash to keep and then save up until she has about R80K, There will be a lot more options at that price from reputable dealers and not scammers selling written off cars or cars with reversed mileage.
 
Triple Agreee

I am even afraid to go to the famous Zambezi Drive - Sefaki Makgatho dealerships
It is quite scary out there, Even Sandton Auto which has a huge beautiful showroom floor sells dodgy cars(Accidents/reversed mileage), they also own infiniti auto in Boksburg. Southgate wheels another one that sells dodgy accident cars, Avoid Carzuka, Stephens Auto, EBK auto, Right cars. Man the list goes on and on. Dont be fooled by any "fancy" showrooms.
