Out of curiosity, what tools do you carry in the car?. I'm assuming, as you are using a car, you do 'traditional' window cleaning, in which case pretty much any size of car would do as your ladder or ladders would be on a roof rack?. I am also a window cleaner, but reach and wash only, so I need a van for the weight of the tank. My wife and I also have a current shape Honda Jazz auto, which I can't praise highly enough, it really is a brilliant little car. Someone earlier mentioned getting one with the 'magic seats', which in fact, they all have, not just some versions. The reason for this is that the magic seats are a result of having the fuel tank under the front seats (in most cars it is under the rear ones), freeing up the space under the rear seats. So you can flip the base up against the rear seat backrest leaving a deep and useful space behind the front seats. If you were interested, I'd suggest you try and get an extended test drive of one to ensure you like the CVT, as a lot of people don't. They are not slow as such, but do need revs, and will probably feel quite different to a 1.6 Focus with a t/c auto. You will also find a big improvement in mpg over the Focus, we are averaging over 50mpg. As someone else mentioned, avoid the i-shift automated manual, but I'm guessing the age of car you'd be looking for would mean you won't have to worry about that as the i-shift would be a fair bit older, I think 10 years, maybe more?.
