Help on Choosing a Used Car!

Hi,

Got around 6k to spend on a car, going to be doing around 13,000 miles per year.

Having previously had a little polo I'm now looking at a medium sized car i.e. Astra, Focus etc

Should I opt for a Diesel? due to the mileage.

I've seen a lot of used Focus, Astras, Ceed on the used car market and i'm leaning to towards the Astra 1.6.

Any recommendations? on which car, reliability and engine?

Thanks!
