What's a good small car for motorway driving?

What would be a reliable car for motorway driving 4 times a week but a small car?

Answered by Andrew Brady

The latest Toyota Yaris Hybrid could be a good choice - it's a small car that's very reliable and comfortable, even on the motorway. You could also look at the excellent Volkswagen Polo.
