You recently commented that a Honda Jazz as a better bet than a Citroen C3 Picasso. I was on my way to buying a Jazz when I read that the average age of a Jazz purchaser (let alone driver) is 62. You may think the reason is ridiculous, but that fact alone made me decide not to buy the Honda - and now I am seriously considering a Kia Soul instead.

Apart from anything else I really like the looks and warranty. However, I am totally overwhelmed by the Kia Soul's range of engines and specs. I have £6000-6800 to spend. What engine and spec would you choose for this money.
