AT is desired option, but can do without. And one single feature should be "trouble free" (which actually rules many options out )

Additional requirements: should be easy for elder people to get in and out and once in a while it might be taken to a highway. Fuel efficiency or resale is not a concern. Should be small, easy to park (visibility). Her husband drives a Civic AT, and she currently drives a 1996 Cielo AT!!! Budget is not an issue, but setting a limit of 6L. For a good candidate, it is flexible.

After going round and round, we keep coming back to Spark. Other than it is 'yet-another-car-from-GM', is it the right choice? The second option is the Zen Estilo as it comes with an AT. My boss is trying to push the purchase till the launch of Fabia with the PD engine :-)

i10, Opt for Magna-O,

I too heard that there is an auto but! it comes only as Era spec and not as Magna spec, a shame!
