Ask the Expert: Which small automatic car is best for £10,000?

My 2006 Ford Fiesta Style 1.25 has been very reliable but I need to exchange it for an automatic car due to surgery on my left foot. An automatic would enable me to return to the road sooner than I might with a manual car. Reliability and drive quality are more important than the latest technology. I have a budget of £10,000 but could spend more for the right car. Which make and model do you suggest?

Ask the Expert: What is causing my intermittent gearbox problem?

My SsangYong Korando has an intermittent problem. When starting, I select reverse and gently accelerate. Sometimes the car moves backwards; other times it will only move if I accelerate hard. It also takes some time to move through the gears in drive. This morning it revved to 4,000rpm before moving up a gear, but then sorted itself out. I took the car to the dealer as it is still under warranty, but they cannot replicate the problem and will only fit parts if the computer says there is a fault.
