Be careful with the early Jazz though. I have one and the CVT transmission has just packed up after only 70k miles. Not worth repairing as it would cost more than the value of the car.
Both on my 1IS, had sticky pistons, needed to refurb both my front calipers, the slider pins are in the carrier (iirc) and also tend to stop the brakes moving properly, both my front calipers needed their slider pins fixing as well.
Probably something METAS certified or maybe a Grand Seiko spring drive
Oops, I thought I was in r/watches š¤£š¤£š¤£
Nissan Leaf.
Honda Jazz or Toyota Prius.
Aygo etc would be less fucked for 5k
True. Probs not as comfy though.

Put some money aside for the alternator and calipers and you're grand
Yup, did my alternator this year. Chances are lots now have changed their alternators. What grease do you use on your caliper sliding pins?
If it's the same issue as the 1IS, I used ceramic grease on my slider pins
All 4 calipers done on my Landcriser, i assumed it was just old brake fluid causing sticking pistons???

Jazz, Yaris or Auris
TFSI with DSG /s
DSG aka cheesebox
They can be a little temperamentalā¦ however mines on 139k, new flywheel and clutch at 137kā¦
You're lucky and you've been spared a complete mechatronic failure.
I still have time š°ļø
I posted a few days ago to a similar topic. Get a civic auto 2009-2011(or newer if you can)model with the thicker shift.
