Can you recommend a small, automatic car that's cheap to insure for a young driver?

I'm looking for a second car that I can insure my 19-year-old son on. My wife insists the car must be automatic and 5-door (as she will also use it). I can see that very few 1-litre cars are autos. What's a good, secondhand, small, automatic that is also cheap to insure for a young driver?

I'd recommend a Kia Picanto. They offer good value for money and are available with an excellent automatic gearbox. It'll be cheap to run, too.
