What small car for £6,000?

I need a cheap, economical car. Thinking of Hyundai i10, KIA Picanto, Skoda Citigo or Fiat Panda and I have between £5000 and £6000 to spend.

Can you suggest which one I should consider or if any other vehicle would be better?

You won't get a Citigo for £5k - £6k, or a new model Picanto. So it's between an old model Panda or an i10 1.2.
