Or if you got a really tight budget, what about a MG ZR, 1.4, good on petrol and in my opinion an overall good car, faultless, had one for 3 years and only the gearbox has gone on it , looks quite smart too if get the right spec, only thing is might seem a bit dated but defo an idea !!!!!!!!

How much and what constitutes a sports car in her eyes?

The zed constitutes a sporst car in her eyes.The fiesta looks just right she has around £5000 but unfortunately needs to PX her people carrier which only has a months tax and test on it.In her words She cannot be arsed to put it through the mot so looks like might have to go to a dealer.

That seems a fairly major thing to go!!!

That's what I thought! M350ZB clearly has fairly low expectations when it comes to relability!

Got some awesome deals on the fiesta where i work at the mo, the old shape that is as the new one has just been realesed, might be worth a look

"a 4 seater economical 1.4 sports car"

 

What about a clio? They go dirt cheap these days and are cheap to maintain?

If your sister is more bothered about a decent drive than image, these are great options.....

 

Panda 100hp, bit over budget tho:

Swift Sport:

I second the Ibiza recommendation - has she considered an oil burner?

This one has high mileage but Derv's are tough and take big miles easily.

Hope this helps

Had a MK5 polo 1.4 from Enterprise a while ago, it was very good and suprisingly quick. Was great on the local B roads.
