The kind of money that buys a well-used 1st generation Insight
(8 to 10.000 euro) also buys me a brand spanking new VW up! .
Base price for the VW up! in the Netherlands is going to be 8500 euro - for a very basic car, with power nothing (electric windows, central locking, forgotten lights warning, and AC are all options) though it'll come with plenty of airbags, even one for the knees.
Who was asking for very basic cars again ?
This will be it.
