Which Yeti should I buy?

I am very keen to change my Toyota RAV4 TGi automatic for a Skoda Yeti Laurin & Klement 170PS, should I get an automatic or a manual, and should I choose diesel or petrol?

I live on Dartmoor, so tiny lanes, but also use the motorway. I am a lady driver, I haven't been keen on the RAV automatic, having always driven manuals. I'm open to the best option.

By far the best Yeti is the 1.8TSI 160/170 4WD. Has the benefits of a 4WD SUV, and the performance and handling of a hot hatchback.
