Go second-hand, don't try to buy something new on £10,000.

It all depends on what you want.

At 2007 Prius Spirit with leather seats gives you a big car (awesome leg-room in the back seats) that is very cheap to run (£10 car tax) and loads of equipment. You could pick up a good one for around £8000. I got a 2nd hand Prius as my wife (being a Canuck) cannot drive manual.

Alternatively, if you're wanting my favorite car and don't mind paying quite abit of car tax and petrol - then a Ford Forcus St-3 (not the latest model) with all the works. As it is an expensive car to run you can get ones with low mileage and in perfect condition for under £10,000. 0-60 in 6.5 seconds, loads of room and a huge boot. Just make sure you get the 5 door and the blue version is tasteful

I owned this car for a year and I loved it. Had my finances been abit rosier at that time I'd still have that car.

Alternatively a 2nd hand Passat would do the business
