We are 3 person (my son and my wife). We use the car with 5 person sometimes. I think to buy one car amoung these cars. Skoda Yeti 1.2 105 hp (maybe automatic) base version petrol engine, Nissan Qashqai 1.6 Visia petrol engine, VW Jetta 1.2 105 hp petrol engine, Skoda Oktavia 1.6 105 hp diesel. These cars approximately same cost. I use the car 10.000 km/year. Yeti is a SUV vehicle and high. But shape is strange according to me. Qashqai is a high but quality may be poor according to Yeti. Jetta is a VW but I could't see real, but I seen in the internet. I don't no the quality and performance. Skoda Oktavia has a diesel engine and this is an advantage. But vehicle shpa is strange according to me. Could you tell me, what is the ideal car for me according to quality, selling to other people, fuel consumtion, spare parts, easy of usage. I am waiting for your e-mail for choosing of the car. Please comment for these cars seperateley. Thank you very much for your help.

I'd go for the Yeti or the Qashqai. Not the DSG auto. Not the Jetta because they always depreciate heavily. Maybe the Octavia, but it is a more boring choice than the Yeti or the Qashqai. Both Yeti and Qashqai should look after your money the best of the four.
