Looking for my first car for £1k or less. Needs to be a runabout car doing roughly 14k miles a year to and from work.

I have found a Citreon Saxo 1.1 petrol on 02 reg, and a Ford Fiesta Ghia 1.2 04 reg.

I was wodnering if the above cars are reliable or if another make/model might be better/more relaible? I'll be doing a lot of mileage and want to keep the car for about 4/5 years, hopefully. Both have around 80k miles.
