Default WANTED: Good Solid, Reliable Car For £2k or less

Hi guys,

I'm after as the title says a good honest, reliable car for around the £1-2K mark.

I tried selling my Classic a few months ago and could get anywhere near the £2k mark, now I'm looking for one I can't find one below the £2k mark.

I'm not fussed if its not a Subaru, I'll consider anything Ford, Vauxhall, MG etc... But there are a few things it must be;

Petrol, Manual, 4+ seater (No 2 seaters or people carrier for that matter), I'd like something with MOT and TAX and that will last me for a couple of years and not cost the earth.

I'm looking everyday at the moment so if you do have anything that fits the bill post as soon as possible before I get one else where.
