My wife needs an automatic car...
I am confused between a Honda Fit and a Volkswagen Up. I need an automatic car for my wife who is a new driver. Both are 2013 model and the asking price is same. The only difference is in mileage, Honda fit is 150,000 km while the VW up is 105,000km.
Our answer:
Hi Hajra,
The Fit (which is a Japanese-market Honda Jazz) is much larger inside than the VW and has a great reputation for reliability. Offsetting that of course is the fact that it is an import and you can't get a detailed service history of the car, plus its anti-theft system won't be so good.
If you don't need the extra space of the Honda, I'd suggest that the Up is a better bet.
