Should I get another Honda Jazz or a hybrid/electric car?

My lovely 2010 Honda Jazz 1.4 has just been written off by a young lad who had only had his own car for 20 minutes. It was a second car and I was totally happy with it, but should I buy another or get something different? Its only used for local shopping trips and golf. Should I be considering electric/hybrid? I am hoping £10,000 will get something reasonable.

The three potential hybrids are a Toyota Yaris hybrid, a Honda Insight hybrid or a Honda Jazz hybrid. Worth considering. But £10,000 will get you a newer Jazz 1.4 i-VTEC CVT-7.
