Reliability and fuel efficiency are the most important things for me.
Not worried about 'street cred' as such. I know insurance is going to be

You need to look at the overall cost of car ownership - not just the

more than others for this. Also look at depreciation. Not so important as
with a newer vehicle, but still a running cost.
