Petrol, 4 Door, Automatic car up to £3000 wanted.

[SG1]

I'm looking for a car for my cousin.

Her requirements are petrol, four doors, automatic, small engine (nothing larger than 2.0L).

It doesn't have to be anything amazing, just something clean, reliable and in good condition.

Budget is up to £3000.

Just seeing if any forum members have anything suitable before I start looking on the usual sites.

Thank you

Well, you can remove the C-Class from your list... this kind of money will buy a car with the M271 engine, and you don't want that.

Look for an early B-Class (2007-2009) with the M266 engine, although the CVT transmission is not for everyone's liking.

Or cast your net wider... i.e. look at other marques as well.

Sorry, should have mentioned it doesn't have to be a Mercedes. In fact for the budget I think she will be better off with something like a Vauxhall, Ford, VW etc etc so open to any make/model.
