Can you suggest a smaller luxury car for an elderly driver?

The time has come for me to replace my 12-year-old Rover 75 Connoisseur SE Automatic. Can you suggest a suitable smaller luxury car for an elderly driver for mostly local journeys and some motorway journeys?

The new Renault Clio is quite luxurious, classy and rides well on 15-inch wheels. The 1.2 TCe EDC is a dual clutch automatic that works quite well: www.honestjohn.co.uk/road-tests/renault/renault-cl.../
