This reply is to all who have responded - thank-you very much for taking the time to provide advice.
I love my P106 and would really rather prefer not to part with it. It has been very reliable and I wish they still made this model or similar. I don't like the P107 with all the lumps and bumps that seem to be present on many new cars these days.
I will look more closely at all the recommendations - I had already come across most of these in my search - some I think already discounted because of their width. There seems to be surprisingly few narrow cars, with a tendency to bulgy, bloated body shape..
I like the look of the Spark except for the bars on the roof! but it's boot is definitely much smaller than P106. I think in order to get what I want I will have to compromise - narrow width with small boot and having to lower back seat whenever I need the boot space - bit of a pain...
I am aware of the potential problem of long doors on two door models (though my P106 is 2 door and I manage - tight squeeze sometimes depending on how well I've parked it!). I think the 2 door versions of new cars these days do have longer doors than the 106 so I may have to have 4 doors - not really required, but will make lowering the back seat easier.
The onlysuggestion I have never heard of is the P1007 with sliding doors - thats sounds an excellent solution and I will look for details of that now.
Once again many thanks to all who took the time to reply
