Hey I'm Sin- , and I live in the uk and it's coming up to my 17th birthday and I'm now looking for a first car, I've been searching multiple sites and I can't find any that catches my eye.
I'm not looking for any specific manufacturers, but I am looking for something sport
Price range is around £1000 but can stretch to go a little bit over, and insurance at a reasonable price.
Do any of you guys know of any type of cars I could be looking for or a site that could help me find the recommended car your giving me.

1. Ford Focus
2. Vauxhall Astra
3. Volkswagen Golf
I couldnt really find anyting very sporty. BUT with a little extra money you could make them decent. I would just start here and work up to something better and better

Don't worry about other peoples cars, man. You've got a small budget and you'll be buying a cash car. Cross your fingers, because most cash cars under 2,500(In the U.S) are going to have problems. Whether it's just no air conditioning, bad power steering, etc.
Take your money, buy something cheap that has little problems, or easily fixable ones and save up as fast as you can. Or, you could always put that 1K down on a car and do payments. Maybe see if they auction cars off. Once in awhile, to raise money, police(In the US) auction old impounded cars, starting at $0. I've seen decent cars sell as little as $500 with no major problems, except bad interior.
If you're going to be picky on a 1K budget, you need to take a step back and realize what cars cost. They are EXPENSIVE. It sucks, but that's how it is. You won't get much that's flashy, eye catching, etc.

Get a ford fiesta mk6 and make it look sporty.
Corsas arent built well.
Golfs arent bad but rust badly.
Polos are horrid
