Hi there
Well, seeing as your requirements see fuel efficiency take a back seat to durability and long-term running costs, the Hyundai i20 will be your best bet. In fact, if you buy a 2015 model i20, you will still get the benefit of the remainder of the manufacturer's warranty.
Here's why: the Fiesta and Polos generally rely on turbos to boost power from their smaller engines, while the i20 doesn't have any form of forced induction. This immediately means that there's less complexity under the bonnet, meaning that there's less to go wrong in the long term. Furthermore, the Hyundai's mechanical pieces are proven to be strong and durable, further decreasing your chances of expensive repairs down the line.
Hope this helps!
