What should we replace our Peugeot 208 with?

My wife wants to replace her 2012 Peugeot 208. We have looked at similar sized Kia and Hyundai vehicles but nothing is really grabbing our attention. We have seen a Suzuki Swift automatic with only 660 miles in the clock for £15690 which seems a good price but my wife would like a digital speedo which I don't think the Suzuki has. Are there other smaller automatics that we should be looking at? The car will only cover about 4000 miles a year and we aim to keep it for a lengthy period of time.

The Suzuki Swift's a great little car. There's a new model on its way - so you might be able to get a good deal on the outgoing model if you're not fussed about having the latest thing. If a digital instrument cluster is a 'must have', we'd recommend a Volkswagen Polo. It's an excellent small car with a digital cockpit as standard.
