May I suggest a bicycle?
For that little mileage the battery will never charge. You need at least 20-30 miles in one go regularly to keep a battery totally healthy. Modern cars to suck power while parked so they just slowly discharge.
I believe there are batteries that can handle full discharge and charge cycles better but they will be double the cost.
@christianSpaceman can I ask how much use the car gets? Asking because I often worry about my car battery. I don't use our car much, can be stationary for over a week at a time, but when I do use it I drive it for a fair distance. 50-300 miles. I've not had any problems yet but am waiting for the day the battery goes flat.
