106 : Not a bad first car, generally reliable and mods are available, can be a little pricey if they need repairing compared to some other similar cars.

Punto : Cheap cars however they are not very reliable and cheap built from new.

Fiesta : Cheap cars from new, plenty cheap mods available, not to bad in reliability issues, can suffer from corrosion though....

Corsa : Cheap Built but quite good reliability. Do not suffer from corrosion allot, Cheap to repair and Plenty mods are available at good prices.

Clio : Well built, not the cheapest to repair but they are relaible, mods available also.
