Yaris twee
Last September I bought a Yaris diesel 2-door. Almost immediately I wished I had bought a 4-door version that, then, was only £500 dearer. Friends advised me against the 2-door but my husband thought it ideal – but he no longer does. I would be glad of advice as to what would be the best deal now. The car could either be petrol or diesel although the diesel Yaris engine was considered far the better choice then. I have covered 6,000 miles in my car. Your thoughts would be greatly appreciated, as I really don't want to make any more costly mistakes.

The new 1.33 engine looks like a best bet because it is under 121g/km, so £35 tax. But you would have to take a deep bath on the p/x. Better to amortise the 3-door for another couple of years.
