Best low insurance car for a teenager?
I am looking for the best Group 1 insurance car for my 19 year old grand daughter. It must have five doors and a petrol engine with a manual gearbox. Journeys will be between Durham University and her home in Berkhamsted. What models should I consider for her within a budget of £6.5K? Reliability, build quality and low maintenance costs are important.

Toyota Yaris 1.3 manual. Maybe a Fiesta 1.25. Maybe a Corsa 1.0 or 1.2. Steer clear of Polos, Fabias and Ibizas.

Fairly big boot by class standards, tempting hybrid option, Toyota has an epic reliability record.

Sharper looks than the previous Ford Fiesta. Comes with the award-winning 1.0 Ecoboost three-cylinder.

Much improved over previous Corsa, better quality interior with a more upmarket feel, impressive for around town.
