I have a healthy budget, I have a car to part ex, and cash.

My list of non negotiables is, automatic, petrol, not a small car as I’m 5’10” (tried small cars, but the leg room is awful, and I look silly).

I have looked at the Toyota CHR, top of the range hybrid, petrol and automatic. This is brand new. Anyone have experience with this car?

Also on my list, is an Audi Q3. I love the design, though ones I’ve seen are diesel and manual 2l guzzlers.

Mercedes GLA, new or used.
I also saw a C200 😍 it was stunning, but 3 door coupe (an impractical car, but beautiful looking) this was a year old.

From my list I have discounted Mazda CX-3, and the Nissan X-trail.

Now, it’s the only treat I’ll be getting in a while as I have my cars for about 6/7 years, and don’t do loads of mileage in them. I’ve had my car for 4 years, and have only racked up 30k miles on it, but I’m bored of this one as bought it in a desperate hurry after arriving back from living in Oz.

TIA

Q3 - but then I work for them (and I'm not an asshole thank you!)

I looked at the Toyota earlier this year - nice car but .......I went for an Evoque.

If you are low mileage the Toyota is probably the best economically.....and is the best looking of the three.

However, I still prefer the Evoque or the Disco Sport

Merc c200. Love mine.

Toyota. I luffs them, I’ve had three and just ordered a fourth. They are excellent cars and extremely reliable. I wouldn’t touch an arseholes’ car with a very long pole 😂

Why did you discount the X-Trail? We bought one about 3 months ago and I LOVE LOVE LOVE it. We bought the Tekka, which is the top of the range one.

From your options I'd go for a Q3 because they are beautiful, but I think Audi's can have reliability problems?

I'd never get a Mercedes again - their aftercare is absolutely disgraceful.

Depends on what you need it for. If you need practicality then the nissan. If not, treat yourself to the merc.
