Which small automatic for my mother-in-law?
I need to buy a new small automatic for my mother-in-law. She currently drives a 2004 automatic Corsa. I have no idea about automatics and have about three days over Christmas to get the new car. Which of the current cars should we plump for?

A Vauxhall Agila 1.2 auto would be a good idea. It's a sensible part-exchange for the Corsa with upright seats, and it's easy to get in and out of without bending. Compact dimensions, five doors, oldies love them.

Surprisingly spacious small five-door city car. Makes best sense with 1.0 petrol engine. Much better than old Agila. Rebadged version of Suzuki Splash.
