Best sub-£2500 automatic?
I may need to replace my not-so-trusty automatic car but only have a budget of around £2500. I need an automatic gearbox (fully auto, not semi), decent 0-60 time (around 11 seconds), NCAP score of four stars or better and decent reliability too (especially in the gearbox area and other potentially BIG bills).
