I'm looking to buy a small second car, what should I choose?

Question

I really need a small car to ferry around 2 small children. Plus I'd like to be able to fit a 3rd child on a booster in the rear middle seat, between the 2 car seats, for short journeys. The boot doesn't need to be huge, just big enough for a small buggy and a few essentials. I'd like it to be as small as possible for my needs, economical, cheap to run, maintain and insure, etc.

This will be a second car as we have an 807 for weekends and bigger trips.

I was thinking of the 206, fiesta, golf/polo, size. Any suggestions welcome.

Thanks
