      Hiya,
      I’m looking for a new car at the moment, and have some things which I want it to have, and would appreciate any recommendations for cars that fit my requirements, if anyone can help!

      Engine size at least 1.4
      Preferably hatchback
      Preferably diesel
      3 or 5 door, doesn’t matter
      Air Con!
      Manual
      Also, something small-ish. I currently have a Fiat Punto and I like the size of it. I will also be driving at least 30 miles a day for my commute, plus some travelling within the job. So something that will withstand this :)

      Thanks!

      Hi Alex. The Punto-sized segment of the market is one of the busiest and most competitive sectors in the UK, so there is plenty of choice.

      The Ford Fiesta is far and away the biggest seller and certainly one of the best, but by no means the only choice. The new SEAT Ibiza has been getting some good press, although it hasn’t yet arrived in UK showrooms (it’s due very soon), there’s a new Volkswagen Polo on the way, the new Nissan Micra and Citroën C3 have had good reviews here at The Car Expert, and many more.

      Pick a few you like and take some test drives to see which feels most comfortable for you. And have a look at our Ten Golden Rules for Buying a Car for some important tips.
