Hi,

I got my full license and looking to upgrade from my old learner car. I'm getting no help in google in making my decision so thought maybe the chr forum might help :)

I'm looking at either a 2018 sol (114,000km) or a 2020 sport (88,500km) but I'm really getting confused on what is the better option. I like the luxury of the sol but it's older and more kms, would love some input from people who know more on what's the pros cons between them :)

2020 will have Android Auto and Apple car.
Also, suspension is stiffer, a diffent tramission generation. And a good difference in noice in the cabin.
What engine the cars have? 1.8 is less sensitive for short trips, while 2.0 doesn't actually like it at all! Difference in power is considerable between 1.8 and 2.
They both are 1.8ltr :) never thought about noise, I feel silly looking at things like foldable mirrors now! I'm currently driving a 2010 Ford fiesta so with the price of either of these chrs I'm looking at keeping one of them going for the next 10 yrs (hopefully) 😁

I'm in Ireland so assume it's the UK spec, the sol has the leather seats,parking assist and side mirrors auto turn in which the newer sport model doesn't :) my current car has 200k km on it but I would assume mileage buying a new car matters, especially with the battery?
