Which would you pick from the Opel Corsa 1.2, Renault Clio III and Citroen C3?
I am about to buy my first car. I am a girl, not married, 26 years old and I come from a small Balkan country. My budget would allow me choose between Opel Corsa 1.2, Renault Clio III Expression 16v and Citroen C3 1.1i Attraction. The most important thing is that I will probably drive this car for at least 10 years. So I need a car which would last long and hopefully will not cause me too much trouble. What do advise me to buy?

The Opel Corsa is probably the best choice of those three for long term reliability.
