The Ford KA is also a good little car to drive and pretty cheap to run.

Take a look at autotrader on-line, just punch in what you require.

you want a ford endura engine or a vauxhall 8v they are bullet proof .

If you want a reliable car buy a Jap car mate. Something like a Nissan Micra or a Toyota Yaris would be a good start.

fooking hell prince yove got good awnsers

**D M Calibra** · 30-07-2010, 11:59 PM

but the parts for the jap ones are sometimes mega expensive thas the only down side but then again they dont hardley fail you

Jap engines seem to be bullet proof.

I had a 1L Corsa as my first car and hated the thing. It didn't ever break down but it was too slow for my liking. Not a bad for A to B though.

Plenty of MkII Seat Ibizas around for £1000 or less. These are durable little cars and if the worst happens (collision) you have far mroe chance in one of these than in a Corsa or Clio of similar price.

Most are well equipped as well, PAS, electric front windows and A/C are pretty common. Avoid the 1.9 non turbo diesel, it's a bit ploddy, as is the 1.0 petrol.

Chevy Beat can meet all your needs... it has a good drivability too...
