Probably not really appropriate for me because you're looking at Civic 5 door against Auris, but I checked out the Prius before the Civic Hybrid. The Toyota dealer couldn't be bothered getting a car to test drive and it was too expensive anyway, and the spec was abysmal for the money. A year later and I'm still very happy.

With regard to the Civic 5 door v the Auris, the Civic wins hands down, but should really come with reverse sensors as standard. Having had a 5 door for a while at work, the rear view is pretty awful. But I suppose it's one of those things that you get used to, and sacrifice for the greater good of the car itself.
