Try to find a Hyundai i30 or KIA cee'd, preferably 1.6CRDI but you will probably have to settle for a 1.4 or 1.6 petrol. Avoid 2.0 litre petrol and diesel.

I'm looking at the Hyundai i30. Will the 1.4 petrol have plenty of power for the size of car. Or is the 1.6 diesel a better option.
We only do about 8000 to 10000 miles a year.
I'm thinking of a 09/59 Kia Cee'd, largely due to the seven-year warranty (or remainder of).
Unsure on 1.6 diesel or 1.6 petrol. We do around 8-10000 miles per year, mostly town driving and school run...
Which would you recommend the most out of Mazda 3, Skoda Octavia, and Kia Cee'd?
