Adequate luggage space and reasonable power steering.
Everything else
I bought a 53 plate Citroen C3 from new. Probably the most unreliable car I have ever known. No less than 13 trips to the service centre in two years. The injectors have failed, the wipers burned out, the oil filter was cracked (after a service!) the electrics have died twice. I'm on the third stereo, the headlight has filled with water (after a service) the wipers fell off (after a service).
All in all this is a terrible car. Poor visibility, limited power, appalling gearbox and a complete disaster throughout.
After just 21,000 miles it's going....hopefully to hell.
