Ok lot of people have been asking this question - since the GP5 prices have gone down somewhat - and truth be said it is a lot of car for that budget. The problem is the DCT issues - if you can spare a few hundred thousand for the eventual scenario where the DCT will act up then worth a gamble but if your budget is 3.3 then do not stretch it. It is certainly not the best option. You could go for a non hybrid at that point can you elaborate your requirement more?

What are your priorities? Fuel efficiency? Fun to drive? Space? Features? Cheap maintenance? What makes you desire the GP5 specifically?

I hope you know about the DCT gearbox issue in the GP5 that affects the Vezel too. For your budget, you could get a decent S grade with all the options but by now, these cars will have old batteries that will need replacement in a few years down the line.

If a hybrid is what you really want, go for an Aqua. They are more fuel efficient and don't suffer from DCT issues as the employ a CVT. But the aging battery issue persists here too due to age.

If you truly want a Fit due to the slightly more engaging driving experience & if it must be a hybrid, then I suggest going for the GP1 fit (find one which has the oil burning issue fixed)

If you just want a simple & fun to drive hatchback, go for the non-hybrid GE-generation Fit. There are plenty for less than 2.6 million and you can save alot of money too!
