My mom is looking at getting a new car, problem is, it must be an automatic since her drivers was done on an automatic back in the day, and its a restriction on her current drivers card. So dont even suggest manuals - she isnt interested in learning.

Budget: R120k - R160k at max.

It doesnt have to be anything fancy, just reliable and practical.

She fancies the Hyundai getz at the moment, but I just want to here what else I can tell her to have a look at. So any suggestions?

Thanks :)
 
Handa Jazz.
extremely easy to drive and very practical seating arrangements.
 
Special edition, Fazda? The Polo is tiptronic, not DSG :p Apart from the Getz, which is a decent enough car, I'd strongly suggest she look at a 2nd-hand previous gen Polo. It's the only car in the segment with a 6 speed auto box, and a very decent drive.

EDIT

+1 to the Jazz as well if you can find one at that kind of price...

Ooops...Tiptronic of course...:o

I thought something looked wrong when I typed that!! ;)

That six speed box is a total joy!! :D
 
I'm also thinking Polo 1.6 Tiptronic. Has Honda switched back to a conventional automatic in the new Jazz?
