Which used automatic supermini?

Hope you had a nice weekend and thanks for your advice over the years. What is your recommended used automatic supermini for £4k and a maximum age of 7 years. My initial research seems to favour Nissan Micra and Honda Jazz.

I've considered Fiesta, Corsa etc but people seem to have horror stories about the automated-manual gear boxes.
