What should we replace our 2008 Ford Fiesta with?

My daughter is selling her 2008 Ford Fiesta. She has £6000 to spend on a used vehicle of Fiesta-size. Suggestions, please?

Another Fiesta would be a good choice – particularly one with the reliable 1.25-litre petrol engine. Alternatively, we'd recommend a Hyundai i20. It's a great little car and you should be able to find one with the remainder of its five-year warranty.

Sharper looks than the previous Ford Fiesta. Comes with the award-winning 1.0 Ecoboost three-cylinder.
Practical and spacious interior. Good value for money.
