Thinking of an automatic SUV...

I am thinking of buying an automatic SUV. Is the Suzuki Vitara 1.6 SZ5 a good choice or is a Nissan Mokka elite nav better. The others I was considering us a citreon C3 aircross. What would you recommend. I can't afford more than 16k. Is 16k good for a vitae 67 plate SZ5 with 9,000 on clock.

Our answer:

Hi Lydia,

You’ve picked a couple of good ones there, although we will say the Vitara 1.6 is a normally aspirated engine (i.e., it doesn’t have a turbocharger) and this can make it seem a little sluggish in day-to-day driving. The C3 Aircross is a good alternative, but we’d steer clear of the Opel Mokka. You might also like to look at good used examples of the Skoda Yeti with the DSG gearbox.
