Question

I've got about £1k to spend on a runabout, needs to be reliable and fairly low key. Also want something small.

Been thinking about getting a sensible sub 1.4 (cheap tax) Fiesta, 205 or Clio but then started getting a bit carried away!

Can you get a good 1.9 GTi for £1k? or am I looking at sheds? (just looking on Autotrader at this stage) How reliable are they?

I'm undecided whether the additional running costs will outweigh the grin factor from a nippy hot hatch.

Anyone got any thoughts or suggestions?

Thanks!

Just got the daughter a 1.3 Polo - solid, but check the fuel tank.
