Don't buy French.
Buy mainstream like Ford, Poxhall as the parts are cheap.
Buy something with a low insurance group.
Or an Astra 1.7TD with the Isuzu lump…can run that on anything lol

Boring of sorts, but was still faster than the mk3 Golf GTi of the same era......
I believe the Germans make some, see Commuting for details probably.Are you buying trader or private, if private are you a good judge of character, I've bought loads of cars often without driving or even starting the engine, just by talking to the owner you can tell what type of car it will be & the true reason for selling.
But as to what type of car, is there any other than Japanese? Does anyone else make cars?
Alan...
But the OP stated small and cheap to insure! This is neither!!
And an auto in a small car? I really would not touch that one.
On mileage - this is too low for its own good. Been sitting around too much. This is a retired persons car. It has been pootling down the shops on 2 mile runs on a cold engine all its life and sitting around with the brake discs rusting away. Also it is 13 years old when you can get an 8 year old car for the money
