Searching for a used automatic family car with a petrol engine
I need help buying a used automatic family car. My budget is £6000. I would like it to be a torque converter automatic gearbox and a petrol as I only drive 4000 miles a year. What cars would you recommend?

Pre-2012 KIA cee'd or Hyundai i30 were torque converter. So is pre-2013 Mazda 3. I don't think you'll fins a Honda Civic 1.8iVTEV+C 5-speed torque converter auto for £6k.
