What hatchbacks come with a manual gearbox?

I am looking to change my current Mercedes A200 which has a manual gearbox.

Can you suggest a similar size car, with the same spec and a manual gearbox? I intend to purchase a brand new replacement.

Unfortunately the new Mercedes-Benz A-Class is not available with a manual gearbox, so we would suggest looking at its key rivals - the BMW 1 Series and Audi A3, both of which are available with a manual gearbox.
