2nd hand motor for 5 grand

    hi.
    just wondering if some of the experts here can advise me.
    I can spend about 5000 on a car-6000 at a stretch.

    i'm considering either a newish (2000-2001) small car e.g polo/ corsa/fiesta or an older bigger car (thinking about something like a megane/corolla circa late 90's).

    i'm thinking when it comes to small cars I should be able to get a trouble-free post-2000 one easily enough for under 5000. is this right.

    on the other hand i'm wondering would it be worth going for a slightly bigger older car e.g megane, corolla etc.

    my main concern would be reliability tbh-don't care too much about fancy extras but wouldn't mind something with a bit of power as well.

    i'm guessing I wouldn't be spoiled for choice with a budget of 5000 when it comes to mid-size motors but as long as it's reliable i'd be happy with a late 90s car.
    do such cars exist and what would you recommend.
    thanks.
