Hi there I'm looking at buying a 2nd hand reliable run around. I have found a 2007 honda stream rsz 1.8 with 147,000ks on it and also a 2006 toyota fielder 1.8 with 117,000ks on it. I believe the Honda is a 5speed automatic and the Toyota is a cvt. Both are priced at 6k, any info for swaying one way or another as they both seem to be good. Many thanks Tony
Oh and any advice on what things to check for, look at is greatly appreciated

Hi there,
From a Used Car Safety Rating point of view, the Honda would be the safer pick as it's 5-star vs 3-star. The Honda would potentially be a higher spec grade that the fielder which was a more basic model, with a smaller engine.
the Stream of this age was quite an attractive and popular model.
