Kia Visto. There seems to be a lot of them being imported used from Korea. Probably very cheap tax as the engine is about the size of a 4-cyl motorcycle engine. Insurance cheap also. I have a friend with one and he loves it. He paid around $3000. in PP.

LOL
not rich without a job bro.
they are excellent- not all that cheap to run though.
was thinking of the 3 cylinder successors to the storied Tico of blockhead's delight.
Matiz and Atoz.
the koreans seem to make some ok little cars.

Vistos have a tiny engine and tour up with AC on chew the gas apparently. Not too flash in tne floods either. Anything a Toyota better.

Getting something else if you are planning to ride on unpaved roads often. 90s Camry goes for about the same price these days (3k).

What kind of car are you looking for? I mean what make? If you want a cheap car then it must be a used one. Usually a used car doesn't have the edge of a brand new one has. If you can spend some more money go for a brand new car.
