They can be fine cars, once you have lots of time and money to put into them. I certainly didn't at 17.

Im looking at older models from my experience opel is the most reliable and then its vw , next if gonna buy a petrol car i have more fuel cost , and less reliability (not always) only thing will be cheaper its taxes in terms of tuning i can say petrol is always a better solution but diesel is decent for some decent number's with good efficiency
I dont expect to put a lot money buying the car, and tune it
Those are 1-5k range cars or less
I just want a reliable car i can maintain cheaply,tune it easily, and" little fast " now my options are really reliable even fiat, bmws ones those engines last only gearboxes are kinda @ss
