Ok sir just to help u in making ur decision I am writing my experience here. My first car was cuore 08 then had Daihatsu Esse 11 for one year which is 660 cc jdm and now have vitz 12 for last 6 months.
I think in this budget jdm are ur best options as u want an automatic car.
Next step is 660 cc vs 1000cc.
Ragarding 660 cc cars they have very good comfort level with good suspension and braking and have additional gadgets etc and in ur budget u will be able to find a very good low mileage car. They are easier to handle in city traffic and also have nice air conditioning. So if ur travelling is within the city on busy roads u can go for 660 cc.
Now about 1000cc, u can get passo and mirage in ur budget but I am not sure about prices. The advantage of 1000 cc car will be more evident when u go on long journeys. They have got bigger boots, more cabin space, better acceleration and power and more stability at higher speeds plus abs braking.
I had to travel every one or 2 months from lahore to bahawalpur which is more than 400 km journey and did this on both ESSE and VITZ. My above opinions are based on these experiences.
