Which small, reliable four-door car?
My wife and I are looking for a smallish four-door car. Could you recommend one please? We do only about 6000 miles a year and, being pensioners, are looking for an economical and reliable car.

Fiat 500. Mine has been totally reliable for 56 months so far, but it only has two doors. Decent small cars with four doors include the Hyundai i10 1.2, the Suzuki Splash and the Vauxhall Agila.

Surprisingly spacious small five-door city car. Makes best sense with 1.0 petrol engine. Much better than old Agila. Rebadged version of Suzuki Splash.
