Small 5 Door Economical Car

I have a budget of between £3000-4000 pounds, I do a 100 mile commute to work everyday so am looking for solid MPG at least 60mpg combined. Due to the fact I will be putting a lot of miles on the car i would prefer to buy something with mileage under 70k . My journey is mainly on dual carriageways.

I have considered Ford Fiesta TDCI, or maybe a Polo, are there any other cars that would be worth taking a look at?

Fiesta 1.6TDCI is you can find one. But better a Toyota Yaris 1.4 D-4D because it's chain cam. Not a Polo.
