Do not under any circumstances get a Toyota Auris. It is without doubt the worst car Toyota have ever made!
I bet you think that the one you are considering is cheap - there is a reason for that - nobody wants them.
My sister had one - she hated it within 2 months of buying it.
I had one as a hire car for a week - never have I been so glad to hand back a hire car.
Gear change is horrible especially 3rd to 2nd
I had a 1.4 diesel - it was horrendously noisy on the motorway
The ergonomics are appalling - you have to reach through the steering wheel to change the trip computer readout.
The interior plastic is tinny and it creaks endlessly
The glovebox interior is the same shiney tinny plastic so anything in there rattles and slides around
There is a tray on top of the dash what is totally useless because it is shiney and slippery.
My sister had a 1.4 petrol - it was a very thirsty engine
The seats are very uncomfortable
Do I need to go on?
I drive many different cars because I don't do enough business miles to warrant a company car. As a result I get hire cars. Believe me the Auris is HORRIBLE! They took a fantastic car in the Corolla and destroyed it.
