After a car with easy access - what do you suggest?

I'm looking for 1 year old low mileage manual petrol Qashqai, Sportage or Yeti. I only do 8,000 miles a year. Which make and model would you recommend for value, comfort and reliability?

Instead of a 1 year old Qashqai or Sportage or Yeti, pay less money for a new Dacia Duster 1.2 TCe 125 Laureate at only £12,895: www.honestjohn.co.uk/road-tests/dacia/dacia-duster.../
