Micra
Take a friend who can also look around for you.
I prefer the VAG so Skoda.
However, Swift are very good, not a fan of the punto or the 206.
Would also look at a Jazz if you can find one in that price range.
(Saying that, a well looked after high miles civic would be nice, just not as a first car)
So:
Micra
Swift
Fabia
(All little petrol engines)

Honestly a Fiesta.
It's easily the nicest ride out of that class of car. Boring to look at, no bells and whistles, but really reliable and fun to drive.
The mark 5 (2002-08) has a really nice driving position for a new driver too.
Draw up a shortlist and get her to test drive all of them. |

Fabia or Fiesta
I bought my son a Fiesta 8 years ago for his first car, cheap to run, cheap to maintain.
I have a Fabia at present, and it is by far the best car I've owned, cheap to run with 56 mile to the gallon. |

I'd suggest whichever would be cheapest on insurance - as that's going to be pricey.
VW's tend to be more costly to insure, so I'd rule the Polo out straight away. |
