Small automatic

I'm looking to buy a car mainly for local running but it must be automatic. I'm struggling to decide between a two year old Honda Jazz or Toyota Yaris. Both seem to be around the same price or for about £1000 more the Toyota Auris 1.6 CVT. Any thoughts would be much appreciated

The Jazz is better. More practical because the rear seats fold flat and do so very easily. The squabs also fold upwards leaving space in the middle of the car for tall items. Very reliable.
