until now holden have not made small cars for 30 odd years. 98 model and up I would be looking at a Corolla reliable a reasonable amount of poke for a small car, comfortable and good on fuel. Dont look at small holdens cos they are opels or later on they are daewoo's too pricey to work on or too unreliable. Like mookie said Civic they are a very decent car. Civics will have more aftermarket support if you want to rice it up

My pics would be a Corolla or Civic.

for around $10k you could grab a '07 plated Barina. Bit more than your willing to spend but thats pretty cheap for a late model car, go pretty good for what they are as well.

dpends how small a car your looking for but you can pick up 01 or later subaru impreza's or forester's for under 10g if ya look around and they are good reliable and safe cars with heaps of aftermarket support

Look,u say your a holden girl.......corollas are for pussys,so are pulsars,unless its a GTIR....i rate them....but go against the grain!!!!!Go get yourself a 5 speed VN to VS SS.....you know u really want to...and if driven sensibly,you can get very reasonable fuel economy.....get a good one for around 8.....small cars=less space to chuck shit......

Definatley Corolla or Civic,
hatches will fit a fair bit in them, i recon i could fit more crap in my mirage than my camry or cressida
or get a kei car, be different, you will get friggin sweet fuel economy, and be driving a box on wheels

get a vw gold. mk 4 gti. i just had a burn round launnies back roads in a mk4 and they are fun as fuck, hold their own at any speed, tractable, zippy amount of power and they look schmick

maybe that price would only get you a normal gold... but still they are nice. better than any shitty barina or astra
