You have actually seen a Veloster, right?

Place bets now!
Also, auto box is typically an option extra on spec, so cost more to buy in the first place than a manual. In my car it was a £2500 option weirdly enough when most people prefer a manual box in it.
Also, auto boxes tends to be less fuel efficient than a manual box, it takes energy to change gears, so before your next post come in and complain about MPG for X, Y, Z car having bad MPG and dismissing it and it is an auto....this is why.
It really feels like you are looking for a unicorn. It doesn't exist without a price tag.
The only slight bugbear is the fuel consumption. The SLK200 Auto petrol gets about 31mpg average. That’s not horrific, but it’s not bad. Doing, say 5,000 miles p.a., the difference between that and something averaging 40mpg is only about £240 p.a.
I’m thinking that’s not too high a hit to take for such a lovely looking car...

91K on the odo though. .....and it's got one of those dual-clutch auto/flappy paddle boxes (DSG / TCT / pick your acronym).
I'd prefer a proper torque-converter box.

So far I've heard you dismiss a car because of the following, some are just absurd.
Oooh, great car, no MOT
Oooh, great car, high emission.
Oooh, great car, too many owners.
Oooh, great car, too ugly.
Oooh, great car, mileage too low.
Oooh, great car, mileage too high.
Oooh, great car, 2mpg higher than I wanted.
Oooh, great car, wrong colour.
Oooh, great car, tax is too high.
Oooh, great car, wrong kind of automatic gear box.
I think you will dismiss one because it has 4 wheels next.
Remind us what your budget is again? £10 million?
Are you sure you are in the position to bargain with a few thousand? You are probably going to say i am being mean and a dick to you but I am trying to get some sense into your thick skull. It's been 3 fricking months now, 3 months!!! Not only you haven't found a car, you haven't even settled on a model. Not even made a decision on whether you want a petrol or Diesel. You are STILL in Square fricking One.
Honestly, read it back, can you REALLY say, hand on heart that you are being reasonable and realistic?
