Time to change - what should I pick?
I commute to work - do about 25,000 miles per annum, all motorway(M3).
Currently I have a Toyota iQ with 50k on the clock, which is on finance - can change anytime and will come out with 2k to put towards another car.
Can put 10k in, so 12k to spend.
Thinking of an Audi A3 TDI S-Line, three-years old, Citroen DS3 Diesel, one-year-old, or a new Toyota Yaris 1.3 petrol SR.
Outsider is the Skoda Fabia vRS petrol - would I get anywhere near 50mpg on motorway?

Good choice of engines. Some petrol engines now chain cam. Comfortable and well built interior. cheap to run 1.6 TDI. Feels very refined especially on the motorway.
Great performance from buzzy 1.4 TSI engine. Very precise in corners. Firm but forgiving ride. Nicely weighted steering. Impressively economical.
Fairly big boot by class standards, tempting hybrid option, Toyota has an epic reliability record.
