Hi all,

budget 5 - 7K
commute 40miles per day (20 eachway), plus driving associated for work - poss another 80-100 per week.

looking at yaris 1.4TDT or mazda 2 1.3 petrol.

I like the reliability of jap cars and used to own a yaris years ago - thought the needle had broke on the petrol gauge as it took so long to move!

yaris will be top of budget or even slightly over, found a mazda for bottom of budget (08reg 44k on clock)

my head hurts from hunting cars!!

any advice appreciated, thanks

    Of those two go for the diesel Yaris. We just got a C3 for the same type of commute, it's a lot more confortable than the Yaris we tried though.

    There's not much in it really, go for the one you like the most.
