Secondhand Honda Jazz - auto or manual?

Is a five-eight year old Honda Jazz with CVT-7 worth consideration, or better to go for the manual version - or a similar age Vauxhall Corsa?

Worth considering. Need fresh transmission oil every 3 years. The manual can suffer gearbox bearing wear. Generally better and more reliable than a Corsa.
