Small automatic for wife with baby

My wife is due to have our baby in October and we need a small automatic hatch which is reliable and around £6,000. Four door and space for baby things.
Can you suggest one please?

Hyundai i10 1.2 auto, if you can find one. There are something like 150,000 i10s out there.
