What small car is most reliable?
I've had a reliable Hyundai Getz for 10 years and loved the fact it never went wrong. I'm looking to buy another car now, and want it to be reliable but maybe a little faster than the Getz.
Which is the best car for peace of mind - as well as good in the town and on the motorway, cheap to run and insure, long warranty? Looking for a 3 or 4 year old car with a budget up to £8000. I'm just going round in circles trying to choose.

Have you considered a Hyundai i20? Your budget will get a mid-spec 2017 model with the 1.2-litre petrol engine. Alternatively, we'd recommend a Ford Fiesta with the very reliable 1.25-litre petrol engine (rather than the EcoBoost unit).
