Small car with easy access

We need a car to transport elderly parents who have had replacement knees & hips.

A low sill is essential. We like small cars (around 4M), small engines & automatic gearboxes.

The Verso S & Venga seem to fit the bill but are pricy compared to the Modus. We are looking to buy next March.
