What small car?

I currently own a Mercedes E Class estate, and love it! I drive 500 miles a week. However, I now need a smaller second car, but do not know what I should go for. I've looked at the new Merc A-Class, Ford Fiestas, Volkswagen Polos, but I am still clueless. I want a small car, with a petrol engine.

Wait for the 2013 Fiesta with the 1.0 Ecoboost 125 engine. That's a bit special. And free annual tax.
