Get a motorbike!

'90-'95 Toyota Corollas and BMW´s have a good reputation. I own a Corolla and it´s just as reliable as my folks new Passat.

I wouldn´t buy an old VW though.

Actually i've been considering that.
Here in Australia while i am learning in a car i need a liscenced driver in the car to teach me, but if i get a mororbike i'm still a lerner but i can drive myself around without the need for another driver, so a moterbike would solve that problem. But i'm not in toom much of a rush to drive myself so i think i will stick with a car, many reasons, mainly because of the ability to carry passengers and safety.
