My son is looking to buy a good reliable cheap to run car. He has £6,000 to spend. What would you recommend?

Volkswagen Up, Skoda Citigo or SEAT Mii. These cars are mechanically identical, so get the best you can for the money. They all cost buttons to run, are reliable, safe and relatively spacious for their size. Our reviews for each:
