I will have the cashola soon to actually get rid of my godawful citreon saxo. I have 5-6 grand to spend and would like a small sporty car that is above all else reliable! I would like a fairly low insurance group like the saxo vtrs for example.

Three cars I have been considering are

Ford Puma 1.7:

I like the looks the insurance is bearable and its supposed to be reliable

Volkswagen Polo 1.4 16v:

Again I like the looks, vw's are supposed to be reliable, but I'm concerned about its performance and the insurance is too high for a 1.4 but not overly bad

Mini Cooper

I've always loved the old mini and there are some nice old style coopers about, they are sporty but have good insurance costs. My main concern is their size, I'm 6"2 and most of my friends are 6foot plus so getting 4or5 of them in the back could be a nightmare.



What do people think of these choices? Any others you can suggest. (I refuse to buy anything french! )
