Unfortunately, there just aren't any new cars that get really good gas mileage. (Except for the Tesla, of course, but that's a bit out of the price range you're looking at.) For something in your price range, a used Honda Insight or CRX would get acceptable mpg, and be fairly easy to do repairs on - not that they're often needed.
