Automatic corsa car

[Yorkielover]

Does anyone know if corsa automatic cars are good? I’m in need of an automatic car probably wrong time to buy as prices are crazy but probably only going to go up .

looking at a corsa 2018 30k miles 13k sounds ok?
does anyone know if there good ? Or any other suggestions please don’t suggest SUV or anything other than a hatchback

looking at the corsa the insurance is a lot cheaper than other small hatchbacks , need to look at road tax but so far corsa sounds good I only wish I could afford the new shape 2020 onwards

True enough, they are higher (although we often do the brakes and general servicing ourselves, which helps a bit for the simple stuff). Our view is that the higher maintenance costs of the more complex bits are offset by the relative lack of depreciation - a £6k BMW now will maybe lose a £2-3k over the next five years, whereas a £13k Corsa or similar will probably be worth £5k after the same time has elapsed.

It really depends whether personal circumstances allow taking that long a view on it, though.

Honda Jazz or VW Polo. Both have decent auto gearboxes. The Polo is a bit nicer to drive, but the Jazz is really roomy inside with a good size boot. My DH and DS are over 6 foot and have no problems with room.

Nissan leaf after 2013 they were much improved with the battery power and range.
It’s an electric car and all electric cars are automatic.
Free road tax as standard, because it’s electric it’s much cheaper to run and to service.
Kia electrics are also very good.

£13k does sound quite high for that. We just spent £13.5k on a 2017 Ford Kuga, so definitely would expect a corsa to be less than that. We had one as a courtesy car once and it was awful. The best small hatchbacks we've had have been Focus and Fiesta and a polo

Which Kia is 14k please? It might be worth me waiting a couple more months to save a bit more?
is Kia feed automatic good

Don't - VW are not reliable.

Get a Toyota Yaris. It really isn't any smaller than a Corsa (my mum had an automatic Corsa and loved it by the way, I don't think they are unreliable, but that is only a sample of one!)

The ones I’ve short listed
Kia Rio
hyundai i20 or i30
skoda Fabia

Those are exactly the ones I shortlisted and then I ended up with a Corsa because that was the only automatic that size I could find (in a reasonable distance for my price range).

Down to Kia Rio or Hyundai i20 or i30

yes a Corsa is local to me but it’s 13k and the above I can get online around 12k

I just got a brand new Toyota Aygo X for 16k I LOVE IT

Very nice
that would be too big for me though

enjoy your new wheels

If anyone has experience of
Kia Rio automatic or
hyundai i20 / i30 automatic please advise

The Aygo is smaller than the Yaris, it would be too small for you. The Yaris wouldn't though.
