7/10KiaPicanto£9,990 – £15,150Another string to Kia’s ever more impressive bow, the Picanto is a fun and interesting city car.
6/10NissanMicra£13,875 – £22,385It's engine range isn't class leading, but overlook that and the Micra is a massively improved contender
6/10ToyotaAygo£9,640 – £15,245One of the smallest cars on sale makes a good case for itself if you seek simplicity
3/10MitsubishiMirage£10,345 – £14,650Expensive, slow, horrid to drive. A mass of metal without sense or relish or ability or anything, really.
