Which roomy, comfortable car could replace our 2003 Honda Civic?

How can I replace my 2003 Honda Civic with something just as roomy, quieter and more comfortable, yet still economical? She loves the Mercedes-Benz B-Class, but I say it will be too expensive to run. I like the Kia Cee'd, she says its too rough and noisy. We have up to about £12,000.

Take her to Specsavers. Maybe a KIA Venga rather than a Cee'd.
