What's a good small car?

I will be trading in my Renault Scenic, which has given me so many problems and cost me so much in maintenance. My budget is $9000 and I have narrowed my choices to three used cars: a 2007 Toyota Corolla Levin SX with 108,721 km for $8330, a 2012 Mitsubishi Mirage ES LA with 49,562 km for $7910, or a 2011 Holden Cruze SRi JH series II with 108,342 km for $8705.

Of those choices the Mitsubishi Mirage would appear to be the best option. It is the newest, has the fewest kilometres, and is the cheapest. It’s also reliable and should give you good service. In order of preference I would suggest the Toyota Corolla and the Holden Cruze.
