Which Motability car to replace my Nissan Note?

In 2009 you recommended a Nissan Note auto on Motability for easy access and higher seating. Your advice was spot-on, thank you. Now I am looking to replace it, should I go for another Note or perhaps something else? The large number of models on the market makes it very difficult for me as I am disabled and unable to walk more than a few yards, so viewing them all is out of the question. Your advice, again, would be appreciated.

The Note will be replaced by the Invitation next summer. Newer alternatives include the Toyota Verso S 1.3 Multidrive S (test and video: www.honestjohn.co.uk/road-tests/toyota/toyota-vers.../), Honda Jazz 1.4 CVT-7 (test and video: www.honestjohn.co.uk/road-tests/honda/jazz-2011-an.../) and the KIA Venga/Hyundai ix20 1.6 auto (test and video: www.honestjohn.co.uk/road-tests/kia/kia-venga-road.../).
