Need an economical car for long journeys
I am considering purchasing a small/medium sized car that will be used for a daily commute of 50-miles on motorways. I am looking for reliability and economy. My budget is around £6000 and I am open to either petrol or diesel.

I'd recommend the Toyota Yaris 1.4 D-4D.
