I can't speak for the European market, but broadly speaking, BMW and Fiat rank near the bottom in total cost of ownership and maintenance, while VW group is typically in the lower half (model dependent), and Ford and Opel are only middle of the pack. None of these would be my choice for a first car, but if I needed to pick among them (and without being personally familiar with most of these), I'd steer clear of BWM and Fiat especially. They can be fine cars, once you have lots of time and money to put into them. I certainly didn't at 17.
