Your best bet will be to get a Ford Fiesta that's at least above an 07 Plate. They're cheap, reliable, easy to drive along with being quite fuel efficient.
I wouldn't suggest getting anything more powerful than a 1.4L if i were you, due to insurance and being able to control the car wise.
Personally i wouldn't spend any more than 5k on the car as you'll want at least £1.5k for the insurance for the year, along with car tax, fuel, mot, servicing etc.
A full tank of fuel would cost you about £45, MOT about £50-£60, Servicing (depending on where you go) £20-£100, Car tax will probably run you up about £130 per year too.
All that added up is roughly £1,800, so that leaves £4.7k to be spent on a car. Which is very good for a first time car
Don't get something too expensive though, as you will probably scratch it and stuff

If you are going to be a 17 year old driver you may as well save that six grand for your insurance....

I'd personally recommend a TCPI, reliable, fast, sexy

Just spend £5000 on a car you like, and then just add yourself on your parents insurance, problem is that when you get of your parents insurance you would have to start your own which would be allot of £, but by the time you get of your parents insurance you should of had a job by then to pay for it.
