Suzuki Splash or Vauxhall Agila?

I'm looking to buy a new small car and, having done a bit of looking around, on the top of my wish list are the Suzuki Splash and the Vauxhall Agila. I know they are very similar in terms of design, but do you know of anything that may sway me either way?

The Splash and Agila are essentially the same car, but the Splash is better value for money and comes with more standard equipment so we'd suggest going for that over the Agila. The 1.0 is a little weedy so we'd aim for the 1.2 which is more common anyway. The 1.3 DDiS diesel isn't worth the extra as the 1.2 is already very cheap to run.

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.
