What is the best small car for an elderly lady? It needs to be secondhand, low mileage, reliable, petrol, automatic and good size boot.

A Kia Picanto is a sensible choice but I'm not sure its boot will be big enough for your needs. A Honda Jazz is bigger, very versatile and will be a very reliable choice. The CVT automatic gearbox is very good but avoid the i-Shift automated manual used between 2008 and early 2011.

Unrivalled practicality and versatility. Plenty of room for four adults to travel in comfort. Surprisingly fun to drive, especially 1.5 i-VTEC Sport.
Remains one of the freshest-looking city cars. Nimble to drive. Long warranty.
