Why not try a VW Golf tdi in particular the 130 or if possible 150 bhp model they are quick, economical, fairly cheap to insure, and pull like a train.

All the best! : )

I would suggest a Toyota Yaris 2003 (facelift model), with a 1.4 diesel engine.

Although the bhp is modest (75), the torque is 125 lb ft, which makes it really nippy out on the open road. As long as you keep the revs above 2000 rpm, to get the turbo spinning, it positively leaps forward, surprising drivers of more supposedly powerful cars. Insurance is pretty cheap.

I owned one for three years before trading it in. In some respects, I wished I'd kept it.

This sort of car isn't generally bought by boy-racers, so you should be able to find a really good one that's been looked after.

I'm using a Subaru Impreza WRX wagon, my insurance is USD$1300/year. The wagon bodystyle helps keep the insurance cost down, and I think you would be hard pressed to find a vehicle with a better combination of performance, utility and reliability at that price point.

Stay away from French cars.

VW Polo - Ultra Reliable
Ford Fiesta - Cheap to run
Vauxhall Astra - Cheap to buy

go for the rover 45 SLi, cheap seriously quick and no-one wants them 'cause they think you can no longer get parts but you can. Best of all, its British!

Purely by coincidence I have the ideal car for your needs - A 1.6 Renault Megane R plate - on Ebay now. Not too bad a car despite comments above. Has been reliable for me. Have a hunt on Ebay - it won't be too difficult to find. Finishing next Sunday. Hampshire area.
