There are a couple of Renault Clio's for sale in my road, a red one, not sure how old (it's not outside at the moment) £900 or a black 53 plate one for £1400.
My brothers C1 is still for sale, may be a bit more than you want to spend but running costs will be very low & a more modern car would prove safer & probably more reliable.
Thanks steve budget set at 700, if you can see if they would budge on the red one that would be good and any other info mileage, service histroy cam belt mot tax etc.
