Which small car is best for motorways?
I currently do 20,000 (mainly motorway and dual carriageway) miles commute in a 1.3 Ford Ka and I'm looking to upgrade to something more comfortable and economical.
I'm looking for recommendations on what to look at with a budget of around £10,000-£13,000 but flexible for better value over the life.

It's going to have to be a diesel. o far the Vauxhall Corsa 1.3CDTI has proven to be the most economical, but not necessarily the most reliable. I'd be looking at a KIA Rio 1.1CRDI new, with a seven year 100,000 mile warranty.

What would you advise is the best small car to buy? Such as the Nissan Note/Micra, Peugeot 108, Hyundai i10, Kia Picanto, or Vauxhall Corsa. The car would cover approx 6000 miles per year on short journeys.
